Hi Dougal
I'm from Killygordon, not flying yet but have a target set for May to be in the air, I am looking at going to France or Spain to do my training, purely for the weather aspect, there is a microlight site in letterkenny which I will be using from time to time, I have an old wing which I bought from Paddys Paramotoring in Jan., groundhandling only, but I have fields next to my workshop which are ideal for groundhandling....even in the very wet weather the ground is dry, so if it clears up enough for the grass to dry its 100%...
As Gordon has said there are a lot of suitable sites locally here, once we have an exemption of course
I will send you my mobile number by pm, give me a call and wee can meet up for a yarn sometime....I'm in Letterkenny almost every day with work anyway
Regards
Dean
Dean,
Good idea to me up for a yarn - We can discuss our disasters. I live in Coolboy. Going to US on holiday on Tuesday for two weeks and weather will hopefully have improved by my return. Only found the website last night. Delighted to find local interest. Work has dropped me down to a two day week so I have loads of time for practising (And I need loads of Practise),
