Cyclic Flare - 5000 DA is hardly the edge of the flight envelope even for a twin Sq, but the guy I watched was not short of power or performance - he was just wazzing. His standard approach to the HLS(which I saw at least 10 times during the week was a dive to the corner of a wood just above a drag lift then a quickstop of a sort normally associated with Bessbrook Mill. He favoured the 'over the shoulder' transition to forward flight on departure from the HLS and never circled once to gain height - he just pointed straight at the mountain and hoped to outclimb it.. .Now there is nothing wrong with enjoying your flying as long as it is only you that you put at risk - I suggest a busy ski resort during school half term is not the best place to showboat your skills.. .A most unfortunate accident whatever the cause.
