GreyKnight Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 I just had to re-read your very first post to find out that it was supposed to have no engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBloke Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 yup, need the wind to create lift up the slope, no wind = no lift I know that but how bad does the wind have to get before you stop flying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonar Posted May 19, 2008 Author Share Posted May 19, 2008 I have flown in 55-70mph winds with 1 kilo of lead taped to the plane The problem is you can't stand up and stones are flying around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
