Enzo you are destined for a life of Pie-ing not Fly-ing now off you go and make me that bloody pie you promised all those months ago
Leg is almost fully mended now (as it's Haze's turn now.. ) so I might just come and find you on Sunday to get my wing out to handle for the first time since the November!
Hmm wonder if i'll remember what to do ....
Oh and an address if would be handy if you dont mind me coming and poking my nose in
if you wish to come i will tell farmer there will be a few people ,turning up , are you flying?
-
okay i will ring farmer tomorrow and book site for sunday all day
this site is norton farm seaford BN25 2UW
i also have a 'made up' training harness and wing you can practice with, set up for high hangpoints
we could meet at farm at 9.00am sunday morning
directions are: you turn off A259 at bishopstone and continue though old village, follow road untill you see norton farm sign, i will be there, robin

looks like this saturday going to be northery, moderate strength wind, looking good for free flight, but sunday is looking calm, south easterly to southerly wind, looking good for paramotoring
So is anyone up for flying sunday either at eastside beach or on this farmers land at bisopstone,
steve you can come and practice your ground handling and you may pick up on a few tips on the way and eugene was interested in revisting newhaven
do you want me to ring the farmer at norton farm and arrange use on his field for sunday?

steve the weather forecast for weekend is looking really bad
if you have had previous flights and after a few succussful practice launches , and with help you could fly from the bishopstone site, its that easy to launch from, just dont tell your instructor
its up to you, but anyway i will be intouch when forecast looks better, robin

Robin, I'm only over in Shoreham but need to complete my training with Steve 'lucky legs' Haze first!!
If you like, I could pop over for a chat sometime?
Steve.
hello steve, no problem if you wish to get involved, give me your number, either on this forum or text me your number on my moblie and will ring you next time i go paramotoring and you can see what it is all about
to go paramotoring you many need calm conditions with lightish winds, these are a bit rare this time of year, however, i will contact you, see you soon, robin

I Robin
As fr as i know there are a couple of pilot's in your area, But they dont use this site... Seymore has there number but i dont think there very active as there more in free flight as are most of the pilots in your area....
mark, thanks for reply, your right , im am lucky in newhaven i live right in middle of some of the best free flying sites in sussex and i also take advantage of this.
i know there are paramotorists in this area, there is nick from brighton and vince and his friends from hastings but i have not heard from them for a while ( i wonder have they given up with the sport?)
it would be handy to have someone live near so we could take advantage of short weather windows for flying, so i will continue search
i m still watching forum and not doubt be joining you soon in the chichester area for a days flying, all the best, robin

had a couple of very pleasant flights from the hambrook site, thanks, i was also surprised to see from southern hanggling web site that no-one flew at devils dyke as it was too windy, this must have been due to wind gradient, i did wonder why i wasn't making progress into wind at 1000 feet?
-
yes i m game, will be checking the latest weather forcast, tomorrow, robin
-
love the photos eugene
and morgy if you are at newhaven monday i will come and watch, i have lunch from work around midday for a couple of hours and i will see you flying if you around, robin

Monday is looking good for the cliff's!!!!
I hope to go and fly there from about 10am onward....
yes newhaven cliffs on monday does look good according to forcast, but only for paragliding, it would seem a tad winding for motoring
unfortunately i will be at work, i need to do this to finance my hobby! enjoy, robin
