  1. HI Guy & Girls. Hi Pilots. We are planning 2 flying expedition this May/June on a 100ft sailing boat around the Scottish islands. This is our first season to see how it works. We have already been flying in this area and think it is some of the most amazing flying in the Europe. If you are interested, please have a look at the website. Spaces are limited.. We have already sold some of the seats, with the possibility of running more trips. http://dan-d-diver.wix.com/paramotoradventures Dan
  2. We are planning a fly in a few weeks after a PMC flyin.The event is near Exmoor on the weekend of 26th July. Many PMC member will be coming. All funds go to the Farmer to pay for his septic tank to be emptied! There are real toilets... I make nothing from this event. All the payment go to the farmer. You can see more information on Face book at. https://www.facebook.com/events/255213284666039/?ref_newsfeed_story_type=regular or visit the website http://www.freshbreezeuk.com/freshbreezeuk/Fly-In_2014.html We plan to do some X countries, rather than buzzing around the field, so if you want to join in. Please sign up on the Face book page. See you there. Dan
  3. Dear Members. I just got a call a police officier who saw 2 pilots flying very low Over Exmouth beach last Saturday. I know all of the pilots in this region, and know it wasn't any of them from the information given, so i assuming it must be visitors. One month ago we had a low flying pilot flying over the military base in Lymstone. I got an earful from that, even though I was in another county. If you want to fly low, please do elsewhere. If you don't know your airlaw, there are plenty of good books to read.. Dan

  12. Today was a wonderful flight. Did 80 mins of hearding. Moved the deer across the tundra, and worked side by side with a snowmobile. My throttle hand froze after 40mins, but stuck with it, Then after 80mins turned back. My takeoff was the hardest takeoff I have done. The take off was again zero wind, but I had no lift. I ran for at least 100m across the snow, and almost gave up. I applied a bit of brake, but that did little. Eventually i got of the ground,and have never been so out of breath. When flying there appeared to be no wind on my face, which was a strange feeling, as i didnt wear goggle. My eye didn't water. I have my last days flying tomorrow, Hope its windy,so i have an easy take off. Now its time to drink beer, and have a saúna. More to follow.
  13. i had a pee pee and my wee wee fell off!!
  14. Didn't fly today, low cloud and no viz, but we did modifty the ski trike to fit my fresh breeze to take the trike with skis. Pics to follow shortly.
  15. In Lapland now flying filming reindeers. Been here for a week, finally flew, due to weather. Today was -24c. took me 20 mins to start my engine. had to adjust the carb, and add some stuff to stop carb freezing. I wore a snow mobile suit and a pair of snow boots, and 2 pairs of gloves. Did a zero wind take off, in 1ft of snow. It was the longest run i have ever done. No lift. Froze my ass off, and my eyelide froze up. I spend 40 mins chasing, and hearding reindeer with a snow bike. We only had 4 hrs of daylight, so had to head back to the cabin at 130pm. Then we started drinking beers. I will post some pics and a film from the trip. Watch this space. Dan
