    Posted

    Its the only time you have not had much to say :roll::roll:

    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 :evil::evil:

    Simon I look up to you mate(and everybody else as it happens)

    Where is your reserve mounted?

    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??

    so in order to find out who the six pilots chosen ive got to read all 4 pages wouldnt it be easier if you told me saving me time to read all four pages dan the man .and who decided on six pilots how many members are in this forum and why wasnt it explained .oh and was there a poll taken so the whole of the forum could decide? :0|LAWRENCE

    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.

    Simon,

    Can I suggest that the meeting is held as close to the party start time as possible so that those of us who are travelling aren’t left with too much time to kill before the party starts.

    Regards.

    Togsie

    All day do if its flyable as we can have the meeting anytime during the day.

    Meetings like this do tend to last longer than you think as people bring up questions that others have not thought of.

    Pete
