Rich Dotterer - Backyard X-C Flight AD Rama-Flex & Nitro 200

It's been a while since I took off from the backyard field. Today it was calling me! Short XC from north Lake Winnebago, up to DePere and landing at Wrightstown Wisconsin. The gear combination got me climbed out of the area fast! Zero wind, high humidity, wet dewy long grass and a full tank!

Part of the video ending is in time-lapse, didn't know it until after I landed but, did the best I could with what I got.

Want to learn how to fly? Do not google it and buy equipment until you read this book (PPG Bible)

and speak with a local USPPA instructor. (Several listed around the U.S.) at the USPPA link below. Buying equipment and thinking you can learn safely watching videos is a very wrong approach for not only you're safety but, the sport itself.
