    Can chips in a prop be repaired? If so, where can I get it done? Thanks
  2. Pilot Paul
    It’s got 12.9 stamped on it. Is that a measurement? It certainly looks like a 10mm socket

    Hi, Just picked up my first paramotor, a Bailey 4V. Anyone know what size Allen Key I need for the quick release prop? Thanks

    Any training schools teaching new pilots again yet? The one I’m looking at is apparently still waiting for the CAA to ease restrictions. I was ready to start just when lockdown hit and the waiting is soooo hard!

    Oh way too far unfortunately

    Where are you based?

    Maidstone, Kent

    I called them today, but they only teach paragliding with their wings then you have to buy your own paramotor to finish. No paramotors provided. Is that normal?

    Should I learn with Airworks or Green Dragons Airsports? Any recommendations please. I would prefer a school that provides all the gear for training too and will buy my own after completing the course. Thanks

    Perfect! Thank you. I’m not after anything special at this stage

    I like this one ICARO TZ Any good?
  13. Pilot Paul
    I totally get the waiting thing, but I wanted to stagger the bills a bit. It’s also a good way of building up my gear without Mrs Pilot Paul realising just how much I’m spending!

    I was thinking of a tinted visor for the helmet instead of sunglasses?
  15. Pilot Paul
    Thanks Blue Brick. Can you recommend a good pair if flying sun glasses please? Polarised lenses maybe?
  16. Pilot Paul
    Should I buy a helmet ready to start my training? I know the school will supply them, but as I’m trying to spread costs by buying things gradually I thought it might be a good idea.....or would I look like a nob turning up with my own lid on day one?
  17. Pilot Paul
    No it’s fine thanks. Thank you for asking though
  18. Pilot Paul
    Block him please. My original question has been truly lost in all this madness!!!
  19. Pilot Paul
    Is he a nutter?
  20. Pilot Paul
    I’m guessing that’s why he’s no longer a BHPA instructor!
  21. Pilot Paul
    Thanks Gerry, but there isn’t anyone else near me in Kent. I’ve since found out that Barry (the chief instructor) was previously a BHPA instructor for many years, so knows what he’s doing. When the lockdown lifts I’ll go to the training site and see them in action, have a chat then and then decide I think.

    Here’s their website http://www.flyhighskysports.com

    Hi, Would anyone recommend Fly High Sky Sports in Kent for training? Anyone trained with them? Thanks
  24. Pilot Paul
    Thank you

    Hi Dan, Have you found any sites around the Maidstone area? I’m also in Maidstone and was just about to start my training when the virus hit . As soon as this has all cleared I’ll be on it and will eventually be looking for local sites to use. Paul
