Great video in addition to the others posted on this site too. If those aren't a good advert for this sport, then I'm not sure what would be!

Looking forward to the next one.

Windy.com if accurate looks very useful.  Thanks guys.

Sounds great. I'm in!

Perfect thanks Ivan for the help

Hi Ivan

I have just purchased a Trailtech tach and struggling to find a decent place to mount it.  Your setup looks exactly what I need.  What the mount hand made, or did you puchase that from somewhere.  I am trying to fit mine to a Parajet Zenith.

Thanks

I'm using Valvoline fully synthetic 2 stroke oil I bought from Halfords.  It's about £13 per litre from memory.  I'm running 50:1 in my Moster Plus, but this is early days for me having just got my kit, so perhaps others are more qualified to chip in. 

All good thanks.  Desperate to finish my flying (have had 3) with my new kit.  Let's hope for an improvement in the weather.  Where do you fly from?  It looks a nice area.

Nice flight....

Gentlemen,

I have embarked on a journey on my Paramotor, to raise funds and awareness for Self Help Africa. I flew 300k yesterday from Belfast to Bernard Castle via Scotland. This is the first leg of a trip from Ireland to Africa!  It may take a while and may end up being completed in stage (spent all day today rain bound and drinking coffee!!)  the trip is entirely self funded and all funds raised to go to the Charity  

Someone may have some contacts who may be able to assist. I am hoping when weather allows us to fly South, to cross Dover - Calais next week (early in the week hopefully). It's the same distance as the Irish crossing but I looking to get a support RIB for the trip over. To date I have quotes from swim support boats who really know how to charge!  

Any thoughts suggestions?? Anyone like to join me? I had company on the first crossing and hope to have company on last one as well. Good cause.

Amazing!  I've just started training and can only imagine undertaking a trip like this later on in a few years time.   Love the Facebook page, with some awesome updates.  Stay safe and keep us posted on progress.

Hi Mark

Will say hi for you.  Yes training has been a bit hit and miss for me between work and the weather.  Am hoping to resume later this month, wx and work schedule permitting.

would be good to find a "local" field to fly from.

Cheers

I'm in Wokingham and have just started training but would be keen to hear about local sites.  Farnham/Odiham will be a challenge I guess due to the proximity of Farnborough and Odiham airfields.  May need to widen the search to stay clear of the ATZs.

Gutted I couldn't get there.  Am desperate to continue my training and have had a couple of days so far, but the weather (well the wind) has been too high.  Hoping for some calmer weather tomorrow....chance of getting some time tomorrow evening..so fingers crossed.
