    Helmet?

    BIG subject do you mean ski helmet, ski-board helmet or skidoo (motorised skiing) helmet as they all have different standards Air sports helmet Covering the ears or not covering the ears different again. Today i would say that most helmets fit for motorised use would be very similar but if you had an accident with head injuries then your insurance would not pay out unless you were wearing an approved air sports helmet. At the end of the day it is down to your personal preference as to which way you want to go. No law says you have to wear one but would you fly with out one!!!! Pete
  2. Still does its job well though, will they other makes last as long?
  3. I just stayed with the 4s as the 5 was not that different. Pete
  4. Not all of us have a dinning room as big as yours Morgy.
  5. Diaphragms sometimes dry out, just get a service kit they are cheap enough. Pete ps If never had any problems.
  6. Forward but wait and pick the right moment to go for it.
  7. That would work, I know someone that used to put a prop in his wing and fly.
  8. Doh.... Bag on the front could be difficult with front mounted reserve' date=' but may be an option Homer S [/quote'] Bag on the front and reserve mounted on left arm. Or dump the food and stove ect as there will be enough good people there to make sure you get well fed and watered. Who would share their food and tea/coffee with a pilot that flies this far to a fly-in?? Me for one
  9. Hi, I would like to get one, but not sure if it will fit the zenith frame. Parajet told me it will, but I don't see where it will attach without the spars. High Dive Clive was flying a Polini200 Zenith when he went in, so the Agama deff fits and works! Worryingly, the Zenith's high tank design held Clive's head underwater for 10 secs until the Agama inflated. I think i'll deff fit one if I go anywhere near water from now on... Any tank mounted below the engine will do this, its nothing to do with the "high"tank design!!
  10. Ring the loft I dont think its that much, or wait and go to a reserve repack evening. You get the chance to throw it from a zip line and learn how to repack it.

  14. Make sure you get the leads you need.
  15. MA helmets will work with nearly any radio and you can have two connected at the same time ( 2m and a pmr). you can also have your ipod or phone connected at the same time. They really are the dogs gonads. I use two with a connecting lead so i can talk to the passenger and they can talk to me AND I have the radio connected as well. Pete
  16. I will be in the next couple of months. (all being well)
  17. Still Checking out potential sites at the moment
  18. Still in the planning at the moment but we are on the case.
  19. I maybe going to the Cheshire fly-in not sure yet. Wife's are safe with my I will have the tandem kit with me at the PMC fly-in Pete
