Is this a first?

Posted by stuart, April 2nd, 2010

Mike reports back from the Maldives. Has anyone ever flown over these spectacular atolls before? I don’t know but I’m pretty sure that this is a first!

Mike has gone out to join  the sailing vessel ‘Discovery’ for an incredible 5 week voyage through the most remote part of the Maldives. He was able to send me these pictures via the satelite phone but that’s all I have for now. Check back again soon for the full story of what Mike has been doing out there!

Hi Mike,
Sure, it certainly is the First. You are the first man to paraglide in Maldives. I am sure because I heard it from my Maldivian paragliding friend Mr. Alsan Amir.
Alsan is the first Maldivian Paragliding pilot,but he has never flown there .He has been planning to get winching to his Island country from a long time,though.
