Snap, I think the jacket is great as well, and i think I could live with the trousers. but I think the wing is a bit Pink for me, only joking Alan, the smile on your face says it all mate. Dave

Hi Sam Welcome to the forum, I live just over the border in Northants but work in Peterborough at Ferry Meadows Country Park. if you don't get anybody close by to help you, send me a PM with your phone number ( Land line please, dont like them mobile things ) and i'll give you a call to arrange a meeting and get you going safely, if you don't have anywhere to fly from i'm sure we can sort something out. Dave

No it's not just you, I had to get my nephew to read it to me, he's in his teens and speaks the same language, but it all made sence after that, i'm getting to old to learn a new language. LOL Dave

A man who just died is delivered to a local mortuary wearing an expensive, expertly tailored black suit. The female blonde mortician asks the deceased's wife how she would like the body dressed. She points out that the man does look good in the black suit he is already wearing. The widow, however, says that she always thought her husband looked his best in blue, and that she wants him in a blue suit. She gives the Blonde mortician a blank check and says, 'I don't care what it costs, but please have my husband in a blue suit for the viewing.' The woman returns the next day for the wake. To her delight, she finds her husband dressed in a gorgeous blue suit with a subtle chalk stripe; the suit fits him perfectly . She says to the mortician, 'Whatever this cost, I'm very satisfied. You did an excellent job and I' m very grateful. How much did you spend?' To her astonishment, the blonde mortician presents her with the blank check. 'There's no charge,' she says. 'No, really, I must compensate you for the cost of that exquisite blue suit!' she says. 'Honestly, ma'am,' the blonde says, 'it cost nothing. You see, a deceased gentleman of about your husband's size was brought in shortly after you left yesterday, and he was wearing an attractive blue suit. I asked his wife if she minded him going to his grave wearing a black suit instead, and she said it made no difference as long as he looked nice.' . . . . 'So I just switched the heads.' (BET YOU DIDN'T SEE THAT COMIN))

Hi Steve. Some nice designs with plenty going on, the writing on some of them is a bit small to read, you would have people standing in front of you trying to read your shirt, if you could read it about 10-12 feet away that would be great, there is a shortage of good t-shirts and sweatshirts our there, especialy for paramotoring. I hope you can get them printed. Dave.

Eddie Can we please keep this a football free zone, it's like France all over again. LOL Dave

Me and my flying partner were talking the other day about ducted fans and air straightners, has anybody tried that on a paramotor? if so did it work or was it a waste of time, and would air straightners stop any of the torque effect, and lastly would it add to much weight? Dave

I love it when things start coming together, and this forum is the place to do it for sure. Its good of Simon to offer to store and book any kit in and out, come on you guys who wants to fly and lives within 30-40 miles of Lambourn, by this time next month you could have a share and be well on your way to getting in the air. it only need three people to get the ball rolling!!! Dave

There are downsides..... I had a share in a boat once. I did learn that you need to set the rules before you start and choose or vet your syndicate members very carefully. Very true Norman, get the rules sorted out before any money changes hands, and dont be afraid to add new rules if you have to, the main thing is that you all get flying and for a small outlay. Dave

Hi Frazer. I'm sure there must be others like yourself who in these times are short of the cash needed to buy equipment, but before you throw the towel in how about forming a small syndicate with others who are in the same position, by doing that for a small outlay of cash you all get to fly, then when times get better one or all of you could then buy a second kit. It's just a thought but is does work in other forms of aviation and boat ownership. Like Pete said never give up mate, you won't be happy looking up and wishing you were up there. All the best and good luck. Dave

Good luck if you go down Sunday Tim, I would love to join you but work calls, remember all we learned in France and go for it. Dave

So thats how you do it

Thanks Dan i'll give it a go, better go and find a photo host now. Dave

Help, how do you add a photo to a topic? tried to copy and paste but that didn't work Dave

Answered your own question I think Ken. Dave

Hi Ben They are all to my taste, I like um, i'll have one please. Dave

His prop was being delivered by the ME109 he shot down on his cross country. LOL Dave

Well done mate, I hope you enjoy every flight as much as your first. Dave

Point taken Dan, we are almost there but if you take a look at the two people above, Phil_P and muppetmanO, where do they come from? some people only put Oxfordshire or Nottinghamshire or some other county all of which are quite large areas, so come on fellow forum users, TELL US WHERE YOU LIVE. Dave

I've been on the Paramotorsuk web site, and it is handy to use the pilot location feature sometimes, couldn't we do the same on here Simon? would it be hard to put in place? Dave

I will second that Phil, just think of model aircraft engines, they use glow plugs and the tip of those are really tiny but they still work, and I have had the same thing happen on old motor bikes, ignition off and run on for a few seconds. Dave

Simon Any idea what time you will be at the flagpole Thursday, i'll come down tomorrow and pick my kit up. Dave
