Quinoxyfen Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Hi eveyone, I live near Taunton Somerset and would like to start paramotoring. I took up paragliding and got my club pilots licence, but in 1992, and flew for a bit but I found that it clashed with work too much, and so gave it up. Is there any where near that will teach me? I would think that I would need to start from scratch as it been so long since I have flown. I am a farmer and would love to be able to see the farm from the air, now that I am older (47) I have a bit more time to devote to it. Thanks James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Hi, like you I have just returned to the sport from a long break from paragliding, I re-trained with a great instructor in south wales, got me back flying in no time, really helpful and willing to spend the time to make sure I was safe and comfortable with what I was doing, more than happy to pass on his details. I am trying to get a Bristol / north Somerset club off the ground (no pun intended) so if you fancy travelling north for a beer one evening there are a couple of us that would be happy to share any collective knowledge. Good luck, look forward to flying with you soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
