irm750 Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 Hi Peter I fly in Kent and am keen to fly with new people. If you are continuing with the sport once you've sold the motor, perhaps you would like to meet up for a flight? Either way good luck with selling your kit - this is a great place to advertise it! Best regards, Ian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterbruce2002 Posted July 5, 2008 Author Share Posted July 5, 2008 Hi Ian. I would truly like to fly with you but a few years ago my wife and I saw a microlight G-STX go down on the cliffs and that was when she put her foot down saying I could not fly again - tried many times to get the paramotor and the wing in the same place but one unit stayed at our static caravan and the other stayed at our real home - this went on for two years before I gave up trying. I have had over 20 years in the sport (hang glider first) and not regretted any of it and never had an incident myself however I saw many over the years. Been with a paramotor since before it was legal in the UK and had a good number of articles published in Skywings with an ending "it is currently illigal to fly a paramotor in the UK".... Even had an input into the BHPA Paramotor exam - - yes I had to take it as well and it was a lot harder than I expected but I passed. My wife Jan has supported me for many years with my flying but the death of the two guys in the microlight before her eyes finished it off - I can understand. My paramotor has got to go now - I have tried to play it out but my feet have to now stay on the ground. I have had a total of four paramotors and this one for sale is simple, light & reliable with few frills... As a way to let go of my frustration I am now flying model R/C planes and scale helicopters - the latter was a challange but good fun...

peterbruce2002 Posted July 18, 2008 Author Share Posted July 18, 2008 Many thanks to all as the unit is now sold. Gone to a good new home with a guy who has 5 years flying under his belt. Knowing its gone to a safe responsible flyer / home makes me feel so much better. Fly safe. Peter Bruce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
