Air 2 Drone capturing Hangglider

I have to admit, that I am the glider pilot and my son did the drone flying.
So YES, I knew he would film, but NO I cannot see him as he is too small to spot.
It is hard to spot a sailplane at times. Imagine how hard it is with an AIR2. ?
That is one hellofa high performance looking hang glider.... I flew them back around 1979. I flew a Cirrus 3 at the time and the hot thing out at the time was the Cirrus 5! That ship of yours looks way cool... and efficient! Jealous :)

Great skills by your son, and glad it was a cooperative arrangement, there are too many newbie pilots out there that would try this without the consent or cooperation of the other pilot. (Might be worth mentioning in the video or your post above hint, hint).

Thanks for sharing.
 
Hi Yes very nice bit of footage, you are very lucky to have been able to take off as down here in Cornwall at North cliffs near Portreath there is a NFZ because of hang gliders and I have never flown there but have always thought why have they got precedence over us as we are all enthusiasts and need to share the air space.
 
Hi,

we Fly a Mavic Air2 and have completed a video trying to capture a hangglider circling, while we try to get as close as possible.

Did you take the video down - Safari says the video is no longer available.
