As its quiet? About 3 months ago I decided to get anther more powerful paramotor now there is nothing wrong with my trusty Pap Top 80 but I want better economy. I looked at what was avalable and it came down to 3, but they all had good points and bad so Ill build my own. I contacted Simonini and ordered a mini 2 plus with fuel pump and bing carb. Ordered a ground adjustable prop from GSE in the states. Two weeks later they were both here oooooooooooo shiny shiny. I have over the last few years flying thought that if this was different or that was moved to there maybe it would be better,so I decided to build my own cage. 6mm stainless tube was ordered and arived two days latter,after I had made the bender I started to form the cage Then work picked up and what with one thing and another the build was crawling along. As I am a BIT impatient I was not going to have the motor sat around for I don't know how many months doing nothing so I thought about putting it in to my Pap cage but decided to keep this flyable just in case it was flyable. After thinking about it I decided to to get a parajet macro complete less engine and fit the Simonini in to it. The engine is now in sat in the cage waiting for some extra mounts to be made so as the exhaust and prop will clear the cage,the electric box fouled the head so thats got to be reworked the spark plug will not allow the fuel tank to go in so I have heated up the tank and pushed the top down in(not a pretty sight but it will do for now) I am now trying to work out a throttle grip with stop and start buttons. I did not go for the Parajet one as I like the Pap type and found the Parajet one a little large for me. I hope to have it running by mid Jan as my Pap will be in spain waiting for me to go out and fly it in the warm air over the beach.HA HA Pete b

Hi Norman If possible could the affiliate club locations be pet in to a file to load in to google earth so as we can see exactly where they are??? Pete

ooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh bitch

Well done dave You still flying that eagle or have you upgraded? Pete

Hi tony Sorry for the delay but knew I had seen this before. http://www.para2000.org/wings/eagleflight/genie.html The wing is a Medium so you are in in the weight range. Dave the Farmer flies one so ask him what its like if you want another view. Pete

Its the only time you have not had much to say Great evening but ended too early, nice and warm last night up at 7am tea bacon,sausage,egg and fried bread then had to come home as the Mrs could not get a lift to work. Hope you all had a good hangover and a flight this morning. I didn't.. DOE THE DWARF Simon I look up to you mate(and everybody else as it happens)

Hi Tony 99% sure but I will check the weight range and get back to you soon. This is a good solid wing to start on and carry on flying with if you dont need the speed. Pete

Are we using this field all the time now until notified as not to? I hope the grass is cut short cause I'm going to get a wet bum when I run The Dwarf

The only negative (if you can call it that) is from one person and he has been sused by the wording in his e-mails as a bit strange by other people not on this forum, if you get what I mean. Pete b AKA The DWARF

HI people I was just looking at the member list and would like to welcome all the new members to the site. It would be nice if you just said hi and introduced your selfs but if you like to stay in the background having a good look round NO problem. Enjoy yourselves Pete b

You will pull a lot more Gs in a fixed wing than with your paramotor. I have (and a lot of others ) been in a full face down spiral and you can still use the brakes ok so there would be little difference in reaching the reserve. And remember with all that adrenalin rush you will be stronger. This is only my take on it as I am happy with it where it is as its out of the way and I don't have to think about connecting it back up every flight. If you feel happier with it on your lap/side then there will be a way to do it,How do they fit them on the parajets?? Pete b

Some one who free flies coming over to the dark side and using power to get up. Pete

Now then North from here then north west init ???

Dan you little devil you??

Hi Lawrence If you want to come on the trip then talk to Simon as a back up pilot, You may get to fly and you may not. This is not going to be a ride in the park and I thought long and hard before committing to this. Dont feel hard done by you just need to check the forum more often to stay up to speed with things as this was started on NOVEMBER 22 and I think that every one has had time to put their self forward I hope that you will change your mind and try to help as everyone is important on this trip the pilots cannot fly with out ground support. If this could not take place due to being one ground crew short then I would give up my chance to fly and go as support for the greater good of the rest. Think on mate your support would be very much appreciated. Pete b
