Event created by admin (Simon W)
This year we have chosen Cheltenham Spa as our location for the RDA, PMC main summer event. It honestly is an amazing venue!
Of course there will be Fireworks, Music, A selection of food vendors, 24-hour fire pit, and 24-hour licensed security. (more to come 
)
What's this RDA thing???
This year, the PMC has chosen to support the RDA (Riding for Disabled) which is a super cool national charity who provide therapy through horse contact.
RDA research shows that riders experience significant positive change in their capacities for communication, confidence, enjoyment, relating, physical improvement and learning horsemanship.
Because this event is a Charity event, please note the slightly different pricing structure below.
Full PMC members £10 in the charity pot (pretty please)
Not a full PMC member and flying? £30 (or click > and join as a full member before the event for £30 and enjoy 3 fly-ins a year FOC!)
Non Flying guest, partner £25
Children under 16 £0
Tandem flights will be available (please PM well in advance if your keen)
There will be Fireworks! Big ones provided by fireworksshow.co.uk
Food, we have: Vegetarian and meat wraps van, pizza van, and a burger van. :
Of course there will be a 'heated' bar, and the fire pit (you do NOT need to bring logs this time!! 
)
As always we will have the impossible to replicate, amazing PMC 'vibe' which is created by the awesome people that attend! To quote the very first PMC t-shirt, It's the Pilots that make the Party! (free pint for anyone that turns up that still has one of these!!) lol
More info to follow, 200 pilots max so please ensure you RSVP (log in and use the green button at the top of the page that says GOING )
As always, we hope to see you there!!! PM or post a message if you have any questions.

I miss those early days... Every day, a huge leap forward into new and exciting territory. The learning never stops, even after 20 years but those early days are mental! -
I have found on the Moster MY25 there is a power band at around 6000 rpm where the engine rapidly accelerates with very little additional throttle input. Apparently this is quite normal on the Moster. -
Recently I have purchased a Moster MY25. I am having problems with acceleration. The break in was done by the dealer and I havent touched the carburator needles.( warranty ) The acceleration response is exponential not smooth and linear At the first half of the stroke the acceleration is linear, but if you keep accelerating the response is flat untill it suddenly accelerates to high rpm!!! In my opinion and experience something must be wrong. I've had an Atom80 and a Moster MY20 before the MY25 and on both motors acceleration was smooth I always heat up the motor smoothly before I fly and I use 95 gas with Motul oil at 2.5% Anybody with same issue? Thanks Oscar -

Hi all, gutted to be selling my kit - this is literally everything a new pilot would need in one package (not looking to split). All except the ground handling kit was brand new and everything has been looked after carefully, including all recommended servicing. I have receipts for everything. I'm ~70kg and ~172cm tall, so the kit is aligned around that. Selling as annoyingly I keep injuring myself (in other hobbies) and haven't been able to fly for over two years now. Asking £7,495 for everything. Please contact me by email: [email protected] I'm based in Cheltenham. Paraject Maverick Atom 80, MY22 Bought new in 2022 Less that 15 hours use (Taco showing 11.4 but I had a few flights beforehand - all logged if info needed.) Has been stored for two years so I recommend servicing before firing it up. I've spoken to Clive at Skybound Aviation who believes a service should be minimal (happy to negotiate or agree an escrow on the service cost to avoid any concerns.) Stored in a dry garage/shed Dudek Universal 1.1 Bought new in 2022 25.5m Salsa colour Stored inside the house and always thoroughly dried Serviced by The Loft, May 2024 Dudek reserve Bought new in 2022 Stored inside since repack Repacked by The Loft, May 2024 Ground handling harness Ground handling wing 12m wing, great fun and much more twitchy than the Universal, so good for learning/practising Icaro Solo X helmet Bought new in 2022. Top of the range, super comfy and quiet. 57-58cm lining Short clear visor (easy to buy additional visors) PM100 Noise-cancelling Bluetooth headset with gel seals Separate pig's tail for using the radio as well as the Bluetooth Stored in the house and never dropped/banged/bumped Wouxun KG-UV86 Dual Band radio and charger Gin Flight Deck Classic Ozee Xtreme Air Thermal Suite Random bits including: Multiple Paramotor books Mr Funnel fuel filter All the random bits that come with the Dudek Wing & Maverick (tools, wind sock, bag etc)
