Thanks for that Admin, I`ve got it set to tape the series as I`m an isle of man TT fan, and whether you like Guy Martin or not, you have to respect him for his all out `go for it` attitude and he`s such a character I start laughing as soon as he starts talking.
Cheers for now

Haven`t watched it yet, but would be suprised if Guy didn`t succeed.

Evening JG, Watched it today. Out of interest, and excuse my lack of knowledge, but what was the full size glider guy and the other chap were in ?

Wow, I`m impressed. Very exciting I would imagine.......maybe even scary? I once had a trail flight in a piper Comanche ( I think) as a birthday present many years ago. That was really good, but i`ve never been up in a full size glider......I`m not sure my heart would stand it now.
Thanks for the info. Very impressive glider.
