Hi Gang
This video is me taking off and landing from the grass runway where I hangar my plane.
The audio & video is a little inconsistent due to transferring from analog to digital.
Don’t worry I won’t bore you with any more videos … for awhile
My two cents:
I recommend taking flight training in an ultralight, even if you have experience in heavier aircraft.
Because of the light weight, high drag, of an ultralight, I recommend to fly it right “to the ground”. If you have a head wind and it suddenly disappears because of flying it below the tree line … wind gradient … gusty conditions, etc. the air speed will drop suddenly; especially in the very light ultralights.
