  1. Looking good. Looked like some of my landings yesterday!! Just a small point from another learner. I know the motor was under full power, but around the 52-57 sec mark in the vid, the prop line of the engine looks to be almost vertical. Is it not supposed to be a few more degrees back to help with lift? Hopefully someone with a more experienced 'eye' can verify/disprove this? My Parajet still leans back a few degrees even under full power when climbing.
  2. Have you tried some of the Yahoo groups? Could well be someone more local to give advice etc.
  3. Sod all that poncing off abroad malarky, have a pagan wedding in the field at the fly-in!! The money you'll save can go towards a carbon crutch.
  4. Barry, have you flown the new V2 parajet? If you are down hambrook, take mine for a spin! Better than those popping and banging diesels you flew on sat!!
  5. No probs Mark. I'll fill you in on the facebook fiasco/war zone I created just from posting a single picture! Can you bring back the styrene box if possible as it seems to be the Hambrook flyers 'group' pie coolbox!! See you soon matey...
  6. I wonder if we could make Parajet Pies?? Seriously, well done on getting this project off the ground.
  7. Thats the price doubled then!! Prop covers would be a good idea.
  8. Darrrel, there was a posting somehere with exactly this issue! Somebody posted a link to a company who could check your old mountings and supply same spec. You may have to dig about the forum. Might have been on the yahoo group? Sorry for not being more precise.
  9. The kinetic energy that built up into the custom made towing system was a direct result of the mass it was trying to lift from the ground. When the rope tension was released from the towing operative (me), the tension applied to the rope during the process of hauling a lardy bugger (you), had to go somewhere! Put simply - we pulled you up, rope released, happy finish..... I still can't believe you ate one pie on the field and then 3 more when you got home!!!
  10. Oi, thats Mister Pieman to you!! Boy, have we got a good selection for the lads today. Chicken Balty, Steak and Harveys Ale, Chicken Leek and Gammon. Youre going to miss out on the 'specials' we are making today for Kensington Palace - top secret.... They will not tell us who the 'client' is??
  11. Did the idea get any further? As the thread seems to have 'stopped'!!
  12. Adrian, get the Icaro Scarab fitted with the M/Avionics headsets, they are the dogs.... Pop over to shoreham if you want a looksee at the head set. Steve.
  13. Did Parajet not take on the 'club' then Si.
  14. I think this is the one? http://footflyer.com/Articles/ABetterPa ... eStart.pdf
  15. Same idea, different results!! Look like gills to me....http://www.microlighters.co.za/viewtopic.php?p=149120
  16. Almost put me off my dinner - Ribs, on the bone with barbie sauce!! Seriously though, thats one lesson nobody needs... Be careful out there peeps.
  17. Oop, we were in Reims over the weekend Alan! Mark, will deffo sort some for the next fly-in. New 'customers' only, not the usual freeloaders!! If anyone is ever passing east worthing, just let me know, and will sort some out FOC.
  18. Bit embarressing really! We recently entered the British Pie Awards at Melton Mowbray. Dropped off 9 pies to be judged against the best in the whole of the UK in various categories. Didn't hear anything, so presumed we were not placed anywhere. There were over 900 entrants this year. WE HAVE ONLY BEEN MAKING PIES FOR LESS THAN A YEAR!! And the results just released today....... Steak Ale and Mushroom........Gold Chicken Balti......Gold Chicken Gammon and Leek.....Gold and Bronze (two categories entered) Butternut and spicy veg......Gold and Bronze (two categories entered) Just to give some perspective on this whole event. Some of the entrants only Small Batch Producers. Possibly 200 pies a week, such as Piebury Corner. We produce 8,500 - 10,000 a week, every week!! This, our very first season, we have produced in excess of 250,000 pies. So all you lot who have been chowing down on free pies, hope they were good?
  19. Got this from the RGV forum. May contain strong language......http://www.amazon.co.uk/review/R231U4ZG ... U4ZG0YDNHD
  20. Do you think they could cope with us two??? Dumb and dumber....
  21. Hi Keven, have you tried some of the Yahoo groups? There are more people on the lists from your neck of the woods. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ppgbiglist/messages http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PilotsPPG ... =480583695 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PPGTRUTH- ... =480583299
  22. Well, before the double enders start, we'll leave it there.....
