The day started at 05.00 with an early morning fishing session on the Kayak resulting in a nice Pollack for tea ;) then it was off to work.
With no towing booked in it was a fine time to concentrate on the Paramotor boys with Paul B (Oakhampton) and Peter V (Launceston) out to hopefully get their first flights on the Paramotors in. In ideal conditions they both practised a little ground handling before getting set to go.
Paul was up for it first and after his aborted launch practice he was focused for the Big one. He did a fine take off and after a bit of a wobbly start soon settled in and smoothed out looking good as he circled the field climbing nicely. 10 minutes later he was back down for a good landing and grinning from ear to ear. nice.

Having watched Paul Pete was a bit more relaxed and clipped in ready to go, he need not have been worried he did a fine job and was soon up there "enjoying" himself. Pete did a great job and another 10 minute flight saw him coming in for his first landing with the unit on his back and he did a fine job of it.
