Hello Folks,

While trawling (yet again) through the old computer files, I found some images of when I first purchased all my paragliding & motoring equipment back in 2004 from Airborne HG & PG Centre.

note the odd purple & green colour scheme my wife and I chose for the kitchen ;)

I never did fly with the Rad Aviation 'Arrow' paramotor because after I had first completed my paragliding training, I lost some of the desire to fly with a motor and decided to stick with free-flight only (well, until the Eggmotor project came along).

So here are just a few images from 13 years ago.

Rad Aviation 'Arrow' paramotor (made in the UK). 2-piece tubular steel chassis with 14hp Radne Raket 2 stroke engine. 1.2m carbon propeller produced 50kg(110lb) thrust. High hang-point harness and quite lightweight as I seem to remember.

scanned photos from 'back in the day'. Look folks! No grey hair and a youthful complexion ;)

Thanks for stopping by and viewing my trip down memory lane.

TTFN,

Rob.
