Phil Jennings also looked very impressive and smooth on his Top80 Volution Custom too and will be a force to be reckoned with when the comps begin. We also conducted a Parajet factory tour for those participating in the weekend to give an insight into our paramotor manufacturing and assembly facility, and also some of the specialist projects we are also involved with. We were joined by Gilo and his Cyclone, land owner James on his Volution2 and I even had the privilege of taking Steve Edmondson (father of Parajet MD, Jim) for a tandem flight while Jim buzzed around us on his Volution2. All in all a wonderfully positive weekend for everyone, looking forward to plenty more…
