Out to play

Moving a greenhouse, phone call from Fergie, finish shifting blocks load up the Paramotor and off for a rare afternoon of power play.

Fergie and Treeve were just about set up when I arrived at the field and it was not long before fegie was in the air with his usual super take off, nice.  The good old school unit fired up from it's winter rest with little problem and with it connected up to a Delta one I was set to go as fergie demonstrated a perfect landing, no pressure then!


Climbing out above take off and heading NE

With a very light breeze it was a good run that saw me into the air and up and away for a super flight with super views and time to check out a few nearby ponds.  The delta flew nicely with the unit making good speed and light handling even if it does keep your hands high!


Fraggle Rock ?

45 minutes later the cold got the better of me and I popped back into the field where the boys were looking a bit dispirited.  a broken stud, no not Treeve, was the issue so stopping play on their power unit.  No worries needing to wam up gave them time to use the school one.  Despite the reduced prop size and power they both did a fine job as the wind dropped even further, who needs big powerful motors??


it all goes a bit limp as Treeve comes in


Happy days

A final flight as the sun dropped behind a few clouds used up the fuel and it was happy faces all round come the end of play. Must do it more often.


Nice surf as the sun drops


Quote of the day "what a lovely length"
