  1. Looks like there is no blackberry version yet but you can frig the browser to get the same page on Blackberry: www.xcweather.co.uk/m/v2/obs.php?id=egdl&Loc=GB
  2. While we are on the subject, XCWEATHER now has a free mobile version, use your phone to browse to: http://www.xcweather.co.uk/m you can select either a specific station i.e. Lyneham for wind history or view the entire wind map.
  3. That ruined house looked ace, going to have to get a GOPRO, there is a new "affordable" one coming out (the 960) that's only 720p and almost 1/2 the price of the HD Hero (Simon can you put them in the shop?)
  4. Just doing my gearbox now, the old oil looks like sludge, and for reference it's 50ml for those who need to convert the 1.7 fluid ounces of oil thats specified in the manual.
  5. This should get you all the way to Weymouth, will be in touch
  6. Barrys farm is between Guildford & Farnham however you will have to pay each time approx £8, Basingstoke is just a bit futher but free, don't let the MATZ put you off. A but further towards the coast is Seymores superb fields (RH20 2HZ), you should come to his next fly-in and check it out. Hopefully Steve Haze will source a training field a bit closer and we may be able to use that occasionally. Finally don't forget you are not that far from the PMC Membury field
  7. The MATZ airspace has no legal recognised status under the UK Air Navigation Order (ANO) for civil pilots and no prior permission is required to enter it, plus it's a weekend so generally very quiet, just keep an eye out and exit the area asap.
  8. Joint Aviation - cost me just over sixty quid for £1M cover, as previously mentioned on another thread the policy is through Alpha Tel:+44 (0)1420 88664 http://www.joint.co.uk/
  9. Hey Mark, does this help ? {Right click - save as} to see full size.
  10. Leobb, you have already posted the answer to this on the other forum so stop stirring or you will be removed again.
  11. Hey Jonny, the videos are in the club shop (link on the right of this page), click DVD's and select 'Fly Another Day' Tip to Tip 2008 Paramotor DVD, £20
  12. Lets hope they fix it asap, I have the last three copies of paramotormag to clear off my desk, I'm needing that fiver
  13. There was a program about base jumpers a few weeks ago and I think they only have a 90% survival rate
  14. Really cool wingsuit vid - saw this on the "other" forum, looks great in HD [youtubevideo] [/youtubevideo]
  15. Cracking pics Seymore, I reckon you bagged the last of the really warm days this year. How did the big SHGC party go ?
  16. On the day after I expect you have a few aches and pains in new places, you can add a few bruises to these when you start launch practice with the motor. Keep up the blog - very interesting to read, definately a good idea to get as much GH practice in as possible.
  17. She loves bikes, what's not to like.
  18. Interesting, looks like he cheated a bit on the forward launch
  19. That's too cool for words, maybe Simon can put them in the PMC shop so we can get them at a discount.......
  20. Could be worse, I have seen a PINK paramotor !
  21. I just love that exhaust silencer, anyway Pete would fly it, just blindfold him first, I'm sure he's up for that challenge !!
  22. J'aime la deuxième photo avec les champs rayés par arbre [just practicing for when we use the guest annexe]
  23. Pete - don't overcomplicate my 99p solution good idea though, keeps your petrol safe and fresh too if it's back in the jerry can.
  24. I just siphon the fuel out between flights, only takes a min.
