From chili post !!
Just an Update...
Traffords Insurance, underwritten by Lloyds of London have clarified that currently full CAA UK registration is required for the insurance to be valid. Wing only registration is not acceptable by the underwriters, nor is it available from the CAA.
This means that both the wing and power unit have to be registered as a single aircraft, the wing has to carry the registration as well as a fireproof metal plate is required to be affixed to the power unit. Full compliance with the air navigation order and Cap 523.
So we seem to be between a rock and a hard place. The CAA do NOT want us to register with them, but Lloyds of London insist that Full registration is held to obtain their cover. (whether it be from the UK CAA or another EU equivalent CAA)

10 mph max to start with wear a helmet nothing downwind if you get dragged.
Fly the wing holding the risers only first, if it starts to lift or drag you you can let go if necessary.
If you are clipped in and get dragged just grab a set of lines on one side and keep pulling them in, when you are back at your car give yourself a good telling off and don't do it again
been there
unfortunately the field I was ground handling in was covered in sheep poo, the misses was not impressed when I arrrived home covered in brown and green streaks all over.

There only seems to be one way and thats through the BHPA, ive just passed my exam and now fully insured. £80 for the year
There is another way where you can have your wing registered and now it seems you also need a fireproof plate stamped on your machine and its expensive. Nearly £300 i think and not sure if you can still do this !!
