Had a very strong day at Gourdon, Bruce Goldsmith took two pictures of me flying.
Here we’re looking towards the observatory.
This is looking towards the village of Gourdon itself. The Gorge du Loup is in the distance.
Bruce is the main main at BGD (Bruce Goldsmith Design) and the range of paralgding products he works on can be seen here
