 More action from 2013 with Mr Smack maidening his Vortex.

 Some footage from the archives of Phil flying his Condor from 2013

If memory serves, he blew the tail off it in a speed run later that afternoon!

 Always good to see that people are still building their flying implements.

Here's a nice little Slingsby that had its maiden a few weeks back.

RIP Phil

Sad to report that Phil Taylor sadly passed away this week. With his penchant for slightly obscure flying machines (seen here with his Multiplex Conder that later fluttered to destruction that day), low key aeros and aerodynamic debate, he will be missed both on the hillside and within the online community.
