there should be enough off us to get some land now gents

Do you mean buy, rent or squat?

I think we need a meeting.

Tim

Hi,

We are all flying in our dreams at the moment.

There are about 4 of us around here that I know of and we're all at the same stage of trying to get airbourne. At the moment we are having to travel down to the club site at Lambourn due to not having found anywhere local to practice which is a bit of a pain cause it's always the wrong conditions for first flights when we get there! But I'm sure it will be ok one day.

How long have you been flying and where do you fly from?

Tim

Hi Mike,

Don't know about you but I'm finding it very frustrating, so near to getting airbourne, just need the weather, place and someone with expierience to give me that final push, but just can't seem to get it all to come together at the same time!

Tim

Well on the next flyable day you are avalable call me and we will meet down at lambourne and get your asre in the air.

Pete b

Pete , I will have your babies if you could do that for us. I'll have to keep my eye on the weather.

Tim.

PS hope your healing up nicely.

England are playing in a world cup qualifier on Saturday and your worried about the Grand Prix Malc!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any talk about football and I'm not coming out to play

You can count me in Simon for at least one day, might bring er indoors.

Hi Mike,

Coggie gave me alot of encouragement and enthusiasm early on but I think if I don't do it soon I'll get bored and move onto somthing else.

What time do you knock off work?

I can pop up The Aviator after work if you want (I finnish at 4:30)

I see there is some airobatic stuff going on Wed and Thurs , how about then?

Tim

Well I don't think your that much of a freak Pete.

Speedy recovery.

Tim

Never mind Simon,

I'm sure after you've had a skinfull of Guinness everybody would get a glimps of Uranus.

Tim

Well done Pete , I wish you could of had me.

Hopefully will all come together in the near future.

Tim

What are the chances of me getting airbourne on Sunday?

Shall still come down just to see Eddie's spots.

Tim

PS, have I got my star yet?

Is the invite open to people with no hours?

Would love to join in but having trouble leaving the ground.

Tim

Hi Mike,

I'm also in Northampton and Just need to finish my training off. Been looking for active members and sites in this area so as can get a bit of ground handling in locally, but with no luck yet. Hopefully it will all come together soon though.

Tim

Well worth the journey even though the gusty conditions kept the motor in my car. More experience and tips gained, much appreciated. Shall bring the chauffeur next time so as I can replace the sweat properly.

Roll on next time

Tim

What sort of time does the action start?

It takes me about an hour to get there.

Fingers crossed for a bit of decent weather.

Tim

Hi Paul,

Would love to join you but having trouble leaving the ground.

Weather's not been on my side to complete training.

Have a good one anyway,.

Tim

Loaded car up in the rain then rang Simon to check on conditions there, only to find out it's poo there aswell! Very dissapointed. ( Going to have to find myself another weather man.)

Now , do I unload my car and try another weekend or do I wait untill the morning and try again . Weather man says it going to be better but I can't trust him any more.

Secondly will there be any activity down there anyway?

Really itching to get fully trained.

Tim

Weathers looking good for Easter Sunday so shall come down and see if I can still remember what I've been taught and get some more practise in if thats ok.

Tim

Eddie,

I'm sure you'll be talking about them for the next couple of years as well as your cross country.

Tim

Glad to hear your ok Ken.

Suprised the hospital kept you with your snoring though.

Tim.

Bad timing Neil , hope it's not going to interfere with your training next week. You'd better get yourself a Swedish masseur and a bottle of baby oil, It always works for me.

Tim

How about logging where local hospitals are, my wife wants to know what the visiting hours are in case I pull through.

Tim

Dave, Glad to see that you returned from Eddies parrallel universe unscathed, how was it?

Really looking forward to our little adventure and meeting everybody, a very big thank you to those involved in getting me and my kit to France.

Can't see anything wrong with having another holiday when we get home , maybe a flying holiday.

Tim

Helmet arrived today and it fits like a glove , also very light and looks good too.

Just got to find a tall tree to fall out of to see if it works .

Thanks Simon for the quick turn around.

See you in France

Tim

Also looking forward to a week off work and a break from the missus nagging about unfinnished DIY jobs.

So far I have all the gear and no idea, so them instructors will certainly have thier work cut out.

Roll on

Tim

Hi ,

Was going to buy a Plusmax helmet for my 58cm head. Should I buy the medium or go for the

large (60cm)? Unfortunatly growing hair to fill it out is not an option!

Tim

Hi Togsie ,

Thanks for that . It'll be more comfortable and warmer than crashing out under the stars. Keep us posted.
