Carl I have sent you a private message. Cheers Andy

Thanks guys. I think I am to the West of Swindon village rather than the east. So if I was in the circle, what is the restriction in this area in terms of height or is it the case that you simply cannot fly in this zone.

Hi Guys I too would like to get into paramotoring pretty much the same as Gav. I live around 3 miles from Halfpenny Green airport in Swindon (Dudley) and I have a field of about 1.25 acres which ajoins farm land although my field is fenced Sorry for being a little nieve but would there be any reason why I could not use my field to take off. Previous posts suggest that you could fly up to 2500 feet high. Given that I am so close to the airfield, we do tend to get planes flying pretty low and I wonder if the rules on flight height differ the closer you get to the airfield? If my field is large enough, more than happy to have a few of you coming over and using the field to take off (at least until we get some horses in it). Can anyone recommend any good instructors or clubs in and around the Dudley/Wolverhampton area and any idea of the costs of getting to a point where one can go solo. One final question, what type of conditions are we normally expecting to be able to fly. Cheers Andy
