    Custom Air Cruiser

    Great Support as UK Built (spares arrive within a couple of days and manufacturer will carry out service for you)

    Plenty of Power

    High Build quality

    Strong Titanium Frame

    Light

    As Mike mentioned frame does not break down into 4 pcs but I can fit mine into the rear seat of (BMW 3 series saloon, Audi A4 saloon) no problem at all

    Down side

    Quite pricey - but as with everything in this life you get what you pay for

    XC to Lambourne

    Made it Lo Lambourne with speeds of around 40 MPH

    Thanks to Simon & Colin for Waiting around to refuel us (Owe you a pint or 2).

    Set off for Shabbington via another Fuel stop at Kennington (Nr Abingdon) - started off making ground speed of 12 mph but wind eased and by the time we landed for our 2nd Refuel we were making 20 mph.

    However the sun was now setting 6.15ish and we did not want to risk landing in the dark so retired to the pub.

    Great call by Big Simon - Great Fun ... :)

    We did make it back with full bellies via a local taxi firm :D

    Will make the last leg next time by leaving earlier !! (Big Simon!!) :roll:

    Hopefully you and Eddie C can join us next time

    police heli escort out of notam zone

    in General paramotor discussion

    Saw it all happen but no idea who it was..

    Myself, Andy and Rupert who were all aware of the Notams because of Labour Party Conference were flying from Tescombe cliffs to Beachy Head (heading east from T/O rather than west which would have taken us in to the NFZ)

    on our first flight we saw a couple of other PPG,s who had taken off further in land and turned east at the coast but after we had returned and were refuling we saw one of these guys to the West of T/O in the NFZ.

    About 10 mins later we saw him getting a very close escort out of the area by the Police Helicopter.

    After he had landed the Police helicopter landed by the PPG and was on the ground for 10-15mins (but was out of our line of sight).

    I would imagine the the offender will be prosecuted but if not we do have pictures of him/ his wing that we can post to try and find this idiots identity.

    After this bit of drama we took off again for yet another super smooth flight up to Beachy head

    PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ NOTAMS - IT ONLY TAKES 2 MINUTES AND CAN SAVE A LOT OF HASSLE / FINES /ETC

    Another example of one idiot spoiling it for us all

    :evil:
