John, Is that a yes (you want)? Do I post to the address higher in this thread? Anyone coming to the Pennine Parafest next w/e to take it back? Any other suggestions for giving it to you? Chris ..... you sound enthusiastic enough to be worrying :P Aeros (since 1992 when I flogged Aeros gliders ........
Sorry Ron .... no pond (I assume that's a strange speech affectation from the NE) notes; I can let you have some soiled trousers though. My genorosity towards JW did cause a little upset; especially to the two families of mice I had to eject to a homeless future. They raised three lots of young ther...

I don't have personal experience but I believe top end ppg's are bloody fast! I remember Simon Scott telling me his tale of flying his powered hg in the PPG Nationals a few years back. We thought the powered HG's were awesomely fast ....... and coupled to a rigid wing the Porsche of the air. Simon f...

Great flight Gary (and Brian). amazing how close we were indeed, surprising how close you can be without seeing each other, so close yet so far away. So deep ..... thought provoking even; who says the age of the romantics has passed. Anything going with you two? You'll both be in passion pink next. ...
The DHPC coaching is members only. Currently there are about 24 pilots signed up for coaching and this tends to grow during the summer months. The numbers actually attending ranges from about 8 - 14 depending on the weather mainly. The reason for members only is because it involves a pre-registratio...

Usually I get lost in your writing John ..... Dali-esque treks through youth, the universe and everything. But .... that piece of writing was superb; so different from the usual flight reports. I think it deserves a wider audience .... too often the mags don't reflect what the rest of us mortal flie...

OK ...... so over Alston I missed the Wallis helipad; but I was high and didn't have my glasses on. A few points ... I always probably (over analyse) my flights; sometimes the mistakes are blindingly obvious a few times less so. Bear in mind that I'm fairly new to paragliding but as I've flown longe...

LCC changes
OK ........ this is gonna make you wanna stick pins in me but I gotta bite the bullet. As in previous years the LCC (A and B comp will be gps only); this was agreed last night and will enable better, easier and fairer scoring of tasks for ALL competitors. It does not have to record height; a simple ...
