norbertflyer Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 Can the paramotor pilot who is 'regularly' seen flying low over the housing estates in the Wollaston area of Stourbridge, please stop it. I don't need to say why. Please fly legally and protect the freedom of this sport for others. Thanks, Richard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norbertflyer Posted June 17, 2011 Author Share Posted June 17, 2011 Clarificaton - now seen by 4 independent witnesses over the last 6 months, who know I fly a lot near that area and have asked if it was me performing the low flying stunts. Wing colour is white/blue is all the description I have been given. thanks, Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan_k Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 That was my neck of the woods, hope someone gets to speak to him. Cheers, Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norbertflyer Posted June 18, 2011 Author Share Posted June 18, 2011 Alan, I managed to get hold of a Geoffw who say he flys near Wollaston (I don't know him) and he says it's not him low flying. So, I've asked the friends who contacted me about it, to take a picture/video next time it happens (if it happens). The chance of me spotting another flyer in that area is too remote, as I normally b*gger off for a 60+k XC or otherwise I'm enjoying the thermals. Hopefully this message thread might be enough to stop it happening again. Cheers, Richard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

norbertflyer Posted June 18, 2011 Author Share Posted June 18, 2011 My money is on it being Phil. He was seen flying very low acro at times during the Nats. Especially low during his take offs and landings.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

norbertflyer Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 It has been reported to me that a paramotor was seen flying in the same area yesterday (Monday), but this time at a legal distance from any building/person/structure/etc. Notice seems to have worked.
