Well mark,
Seeing some of the clips really make me want to do something similar. What a fantastic experience you have been through and so pleased that you can share it with us. I cant wait to fly again when the wind settles a bit here in the UK.

Keep up the great work and look forward to your other adventures as and when.

Best Wishes
Quint
