It was a seriously crowded sky. With the PG you have a great view up, down and infront but you can't see behind you. So flying with faster aircraft (HG) is less scary as you don't see them coming at you from behind. I was nervous at times anyway, worried I was trying too hard to film and not paying close enough attention. Having said this the last video was a tricky one to edit as most of the shots have my head going in all directions at a hundred miles an hour anyway ;-) I would had a much shorter flight on my HG simply because of the stress of trying to avoid all the traffic at speed. The best thing about going XC is you leave most of the traffic behind.
