Coastal flying in September!
The forecast was good and on 24th September, Ben and I took off from our local field near Denmead in Hampshire. The skies were blue with puffy clouds. It was looking good.

Flat batteries
Sunday 9th August was a beautiful day. I took the family down to Barry’s field just outside Guildford where there is a lovely field.

Cornwall
The good news is that I collected my Bailey 175cc paramotor on Monday. It is fixed. One of the bearings had broken resulting in quite a bit of damage. This was what caused the vibrations at 1,500ft a few weeks back. Basically, the engine had to be rebuilt and the crankshaft was also replaced for […]
