NZ Hang Gliding Championships 2023

The NZ Hang Gliding Champs for 2023 were held at Mt Murchison (near Murchison) over the period 2 - 11 February 2023.  While these flying machines are not registered on the NZ Civil Register they do qualify as sport aviation and I reckon they would provide pretty exhilarating flying.

Here is a video of a flight on Day 1 which shows the adventurous nature of the flying:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2j1OLSxw4TE

I understand that Mt Murchison is always the location for the championships as it offers launching slopes in any direction, and the scenery is pretty spectacular!
