Chris Dawes goes long with the GEO-
Published on:

Chris Dawes flew his DHV 1-2 Geo a whopping 123km in the UK last Friday (29/04/05).
He took off from Airways flight park at Ashbourne and landed out near Grimbsy for the biggest flight in the UK so far this year. Chris said he loved the crisp and direct handling, which allowed him make the most of every thermal, and the glide proved to be excellent for a DHV1-2. We hope he did not have to walk back, but he may not have minded because his Geo, complete with full kit (wing, harness, helmet, reserve, etc) weighed less than 11kg! We bet he has got a big grin on his face this week...
Congratulations Chris, from all the team!
