When I saw the approach over the Islands all I could think of was a poem... High Flight Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings; Sunward I’ve climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth of sun-split clouds, - and done a hundred things You have not dreamed of - wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hov’ring there, I’ve chased the shouting wind along, and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air. Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace. Where never lark, or even eagle flew - And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod The high untrespassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand, and touched the face of God. John Gillespie McGee Junior. R.C.A.F.

Took me back to my flying days. Certainly choppy at 500 foot (I remember those days) and as predicted, it was the same landing. But a good flight. Flew over the channel in 2011 to south of France that took 3.5 days to get there , flying for 3 hours in the morning, then resting and then 3 hours in the evening then camping under the wing. Happy Days.

Great video, reminds me of my one "sea crossing" in a trike. It was a bit more primitive than yours, back in the early 1980s. We flew from the usually busy microlight "airport" at Middleton Sands, south of Heysham, across Morecambe Bay to either the old ex RAF/USAF field at Cark or the grounds of Holker Hall a little further north, can't remember which and my log book's not handy. Single cylinder 250 cc two stroke, and practically no instruments, no radio, no parachute. I had a boat's compass, bought from the local chandlers, and a climber's or hiker's cheapo altimeter. Fuel gauge was a transparent sight tube on the tank, and airspeed was the feel of wind in my face, but John had a home-made ASI on his machine. I have to admit, I felt less comfortable on that flight than any others! I got a nice photo (on film in those days, of course) of John's aircraft below me as we flew over Heysham Harbour and Lighthouse. Happy days!

Amazing! The first video of this kind I've ever watched! I had a PPL so am used to restricted views with Cessnas! I showed your video to a friend today and the question they asked was, 'Does he have a parachute?'! I assumed the answer is no, as I never carried a parachute in a Cessna but please confirm the answer! What's the furthest you've flown in that machine and what's the range on a good weather day? And another 'silly' question from the same friend: Ask him if the machine has a name! (LOL!) Thanks!

Hi, first of all, no we don't carry parachutes, myself and a friend flew 2 of these all the way to the North cape in Norway and back last year, almost 5000 miles in total, as for range, we can do up to 4 hours on a full rank at around 80 mph, so 320 at a time, the most we've done in a day was about 550 miles if I remember correctly, all the videos of that journey are on you tube, check them out at dave bromley microlight adventures, let me know what you think, regards, dave
