Cessna Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Hi Was at Firle beacon today getting some info on local training clubs from a couple of really friendly Paragliding chaps, when I noticed two Paramotors operating somewhere north of Newhaven, anyone from the forum? Kind regards Cessna PS Conditions were marginal for gliding/soaring, but the motor option looked good to me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morgy Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Hi Cessna Not sure if it was us as we were flying out of seymore's farm in Pulborough Both my self and luke were thermaling with the sailplane's out of Parham (south downs gliding club) But we never got north of Newhaven. But we were a few KM's from the dyke. Also it could be robin deakin What colour were the wings? Are you local to us in west sussex?

Cessna Posted March 12, 2012 Author Share Posted March 12, 2012 Hi I couldn't see the wing colour as I was down sun and the paragliders were silhouettes. I currently fly out of Shoreham I'll drop you a pm next time I'm down that way. Kind regards Cessna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
