This was 1st year of this funny trip. This shot was shown by Slovakian television. The girl who sitted on trike before the control bar :) was STV reporter. After 10min of flight she vomited her pilot :)
Robert was amazed at how much you could feel from the wing through the control bar. A fixed wing pilot gets a taste of a trike. He seemed to really enjoy the experience.
Paul Hamilton provides a discovery/intro flight in a weight-shift control trike to a student with all the basics of a first lesson. Part 1 is startup, familiarization with the controls, taxi, takeoff, transfer of controls, and climb out.
Paul Hamilton shows his design of electric heating for cold weather flying. He shows the clothing he uses, how the trike is set up for electric heating, and how to run the numbers to decide what you can use for your ultralight, trike, open air airplane, microlight weight-shift control.
