Full bladder on X country

[extra300s]

I wondered what you guys do when you are on a x country and your bladder is so full your eyes starts to water. This happend to me on my first x country. Do not know why it is that I have to take a leak every hour when I am training. Someone said it is the cold, me thinks it might be to much excitement, nervs, cold all in one.

Luckily we flew over the beach so I could ask the instructor if we could do a quick landing on the be@ch. But what if one is over terrain where a safe and smooth landing spot is not to close.

Any suggestions

Liquid management almost part of pre-flight. Only gonna happen a few times.

Small zip loc bag with cat litter in for the very long trips.

or a farm road that will also work.

ja, I thought of that one GR8-DAD! Just going to be difficult opening the flight suit, then unzipping your pants, then finding the mamba (remember this happens most when it is leeu koud - net kop en maanhare) whilst still controlling the wing!

There was a product on the market that had an attachment into a bag filled with an absorbing gel. You can guess where the attachment goes!
Personally i try to limit the liquid intake pre flying.
Ricky De Agrela and co on Freedom Flight were often flying 6 hrs without a P break and they limited the intake of fluids before flight.

Land on any safe gravel road and do your thing! Tell the farmer its fertilizer! Know a pilot that tried p-ing out of a bare micro... it ended up on his pax (wife's) visor! Needless to say he got himself the nickname pispot!

A 500ml coke bottle! Do your thing and then empty it out the side onto some old lady doing her washing!

The ones with the attachment we had at our airfield years ago. Never seen them again. The hangmat can be purchased at any supermarket or pharmacy. Ask your wife/girlfriend, she can advise you on the different product names
