Pack it all!

Hey guys!

As promised, here are some pre-travel packing pics.
My 2 Ventos are stowed in the stock plane bags, which are then packed into the red glider carrier.
This is for the sake of easy transportation since everything is strapped together.



In addition, the glider carrier has backpack like straps, so hiking with the gear should be lots easier.

With the box and all packing materials, total weight seems to be about 12kg+.
Pretty darn heavy, but hopefully the box is strong enough, and the packing sufficient.

Anyway, will do final checks before the box is sealed for cargo, if anybody has any packings tips, do drop us a note.

Soar High.....Roll low.....

Made a box out of corroplas to fit both the Vento and Miniblade. Total weight around 10.5Kg. Kind of heavy. Hope we don't kana overweight charge.

Pang, Wei Yao, Sy Ming and our team manager Chew will be traveling by Cathay Pacific and schedule to depart around 6pm. They will transit in Hong Kong for an hour and be on their way to Incheon. From Incheon, they will take a train to Gimpo for their connection to Jeju.

For me, I will be on SQ departing at 12 midnight for a direct flight to Incheon. I will also get on the train to Gimpo for my connection to Jeju. The guys will be waiting for me in Jeju airport. If I don't get lost.

Stay tune we will try to update the blog daily.
