300+km in the UK!!! Richard Carter breaks British distance record - BANDARRA

On Sunday the 15th of July 2018 Richard Carter flew the first 300+km in the UK by paraglider.

Richard is a local pilot and friend so I thought I would grab a quick interview with him and learn all about how he got into paragliding.

The early flights, the first 1.4km cross country and even his first British record at 42km. And then fast forward to an impressive resume of holding the UK record 8 times and including the first one to fly 100km, 100 miles, 200km, and now the coveted 300km.

An amazing person, a talented pilot and what a story. I was trying to keep it cool but had a grin from ear to ear during the whole interview. A true pleasure :)
