    Hi, Ground handling during the gaps will keep your hand in but... Long gaps shorty after starting to fly can be detrimental to your confidence levels. If your a nice bloke, I am sure you will be able to beg / borrow a set of kit occasionally from someone local until you can afford to buy yourself. SW

    Welcome to the Paramotor Club! Check out the members map (you need to be logged in) https://www.paramotorclub.org/membermap/ You can click on a name and contact that person via the map For sure though it should be simple enough for you to find a friendly farmer in that area though If you want to talk airspace, you do have a couple of interesting things in the area so would be dependant on where you live ( add your info to the members map while your there ) SW

    fuel

    admin (Simon W) replied to chewi's topic in Paramotors.

    Depending on the quality of the oil you have mixed with the petrol, it can last for months. The EOS is a tiny bit funky to start, so if your having starting issues... it's probably not the fuel its self. Welcome to the Paramotor Club! SW

    I spoke to a guy last week who was in the same situation waiting for paid for parts. I don't know the people from Bailey so I can't help other than to say, it's not just you so don't take it personally. SW

    That sounds a little concerning. Some useful into would be, what motor you are flying, how much you weigh, what size the wing is We 'May' be able to work something out with this info SW

    I am just not sure what it is about the Ozone wings, but whenever we see them at the airfield, they do all just seem to oscillate a little during climb out. SW

    Welcome to the Paramotor Club I think in the entire UK that there are only 1 or two Bullix trikes. There is one guy somewhere in Scotland who may see this post, and another who is down in Devon and will almost certainly not see this post. Regarding the law, the Bullix trike is also too heavy to fit into the 70KG max weight we are allowed in the UK (the main reason there are only a couple here I guess) Sorry if that's not what you wanted to hear. If you wanted to foot launch, I am sure there will be more offers SW

    I think most of us with Titanium cages buy our Paramotor or at least a part of it from Russia!! They have got Titanium well and truly sorted in the global marketplace. Russia knows Titanium and many of our cages are made from it SW

    Phew....glad it ends well Thanks for sharing. I think had I been flying PPG and ended up in your situation, I would have attempted a landing in the same place as you did. (not sure about the water option!!) Thats always a very very last option in my mind. SW

    All, here is the video of Connors accident. I had the chance to ask him today if it was OK to share it. Please be considerate when posting in response to this video. 'Constructive' advice is welcome. Connor is well aware that pilot error here was the cause so has been punished enough for that with his injuries. He is recovering very well and has a very positive spirit! SW.
