bnelson Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Hi all, currently saving to start training and wondered if there are any flyers out there who want a spare pair of hands and are willing to chat to help speed up the process? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 I am not in your area, but welcome to the paramotor club I am sure someone will pop up. SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ganers Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Hi. I'm over in bolton, and trained with Paul Kilburn at Manchester Paragliders. I know it's not right close but I'm sure a couple of lads he trained came from over your way. Cheers Lee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bnelson Posted June 10, 2014 Author Share Posted June 10, 2014 Thanks Lee. What was Manchester paragliders like out of interest? It seems that it is the closest training place to me, so would most likely be where I end up going. Noticed that he's doing a taster session for a tenner on ebay (with lunch thrown in!) at the moment! As far as having people on the Wirral, there must be some! I've seen the odd one down at New Brighton on a sunny day! Here's hoping they're not too shy! Barry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ganers Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 The training was spot on mate. Paul is really easy going and has tons of experience. He lets you go at your pace so you don't feel like your rushed into the air. The taster sessions on eBay give you a chance to get a good feel for things. He's always happy to help or give advice mate just give him a bell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapper Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Hi Barry, we are a group of about 12 that fly from Frankby, it will have been myself or someone from our group you will have seen. Grass on field is a bit long at the moment but is due to be cut this week. We also fly from a field nr Formby and cover the Crosby beach area. Your welcome to come along when we're flying, great bunch of lads and good friendly advice. Bill 07711 366453 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bnelson Posted June 13, 2014 Author Share Posted June 13, 2014 Hey Bill! That's great to hear and thanks for the invite. Super busy at the moment with work and getting married in 3 weeks but now I know you're out there I will definitely be in touch to come and meet you guys, probably a little later in the summer. Thanks again and look forward to meeting you. Barry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsquared Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Hey Bill! That's great to hear and thanks for the invite. Super busy at the moment with work and getting married in 3 weeks but now I know you're out there I will definitely be in touch to come and meet you guys, probably a little later in the summer. Thanks again and look forward to meeting you. Barry. Warning.....make sure your wife to be knows about this new addiction you are about to embark on. She may accuse you of having a mistress on the side. All the best and have fun. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bnelson Posted June 15, 2014 Author Share Posted June 15, 2014 Indeed! Think a mistress might be cheaper! I'm presuming by that time the novelty of marriage will have worn off and she'll be glad to get me away from the house! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmd1970 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Hi Bill, I am interested in getting into paramotoring as a hobby and have been trying to find a group on the Wirral where I live. Would you mind if I came along to your group one day to watch and get some advice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bnelson Posted September 22, 2014 Author Share Posted September 22, 2014 I'm still interested too! Life work and all keep getting in the way! If you're still up for it then maybe we could both come along next time you are active!? Barry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
