That time I went for a walk around a slightly different part of the South Downs and saw some paragliders.

Some paragliders drift over a section of the South Downs on a crisp winter’s day.

#Hongkong is well known for its skyscrapers, but increasingly both locals and tourists are exploring the numerous #hiking trails that the city has to offer. Ma On Shan is a beautiful country park and #mountain range in the new territories in Hong Kong. It is known for some easier but rewarding hikes through its lush forrest and along smaller rivers, but particularly for its spectacular views over the Shatin and Saikung areas. When one reaches Ngong Ping plateau it is very likely that one would be greated by #paragliders that are enjoying the upward winds along the hills.

#Paragliding #takeoff in #Interlaken. With a view on heaps of #tandem #pilots preparing their #paragliders before the flight. In the back is the trio mountains #Eiger #Mönch and #Jungfrau.

Morning #HikeAndFly with views over the #Alps of #Jungfrau region. The city of #Interlaken is visible down below and a yellow #Hangglider is at the takeoff doing beautiful takeoff. Another scene is from the landing at the #Höhematte where 10+ #paragliders are up in the sky and one is just landing next to the camera.

What should be the collective noun for #paragliders?

This is Blencathra, one of the northernmost peaks of the English Lake District. Its name is fun to say out loud.

This image features two #paragliders riding its thermals, but you'll need to view it full size to spot the second..

A distant paraglider passes in front of the ridge of a mountain. The mountain texture is a mix of autumn foliage and rocky cliffs with deep shadows.The top half of the image is cold sky with the faintest silvery clouds.

Manned paragliders have landed northern Israel: Regional council (2/2) #Lebanon #Israel

But the regional council didn’t mince words, he actually says there had been #paragliders that flew over that border carrying people and now they were looking for those people and that’s why he was telling all the inhabitants of that area to stay inside and shelter.

Each paraglider would carry one maybe two people. This is a major escalation if this all proves to be true.

#Hamas has a makeshift air force. This post has video of the #paragliders in action.

#Introductions
Hi there.
I’m Paul and as you can tell I’m currently a #Piper who plays the Piob Mor #bagpipes, and a #Pilot who owns and flies an #Ultralight in #NovaScotia.
I have a wonderful partner @vgrayauthor who is also a #StepMom to my four adult children and 10 grandchildren.
As a life-long learner I have dabbled in, or immersed myself in, the following:
#ComputerScience (new discipline in this emerging field in 1966; mainframes were the marvels - IBM 7040, PDP-10)
#Xerox (22 yr. career in Canada; during this time #PARC developed what we now call the #PersonalComputer)
#SelfEmployment (another 22 yr. consulting in the human / business side of #IT; Including the #ITILFramework; and the development of teamwork for results through #McCarthyTechnologies #CoreProtocols; coaching other business people)
Now #Retired
#Piping (starting as a teenager in a #PipeBand a long time ago)
#Sailing (crew and owner of several small boats, and #SailBoards; born on #IsleOfWight, so no surprise)
#Flying (#Sailplanes, #HangGliders, #Ultralights, and now considering electric #ParaGliders)
#Motorcycles (over the years owned a Honda 350, Honda Shadow 750, and now a Honda CBF1000A)
#EV (Electric Vehicles) (owner of a 2018 Tesla Model 3)
#Greyhounds (have adopted 5 over the years)
#ProblemSolving (playing MacGyver for the above list; also since we live in a 170 yr. old house on a #PetticoatFarm)

I like to ask questions. Don’t hesitate to stop me if I get annoying.
Will answer any questions with Don’t Know if I really don’t (i.e. not afraid to be clear about my ignorance)

Getting as much out of every minute as I can, so only opening my laptop when not otherwise busy.

Tegernsee, Bavaria, Germany
