A load of hot air!
Posted on August 12, 2013 in Phil Jennings
It’s 12pm on a Sunday night and I’m parked up at Dover dock heading out on another adventure. I’ll save that story till the next update as this entry is all about the excellent weekend I’ve just had.
Another podium finish!

Well its the next day after the hectic British Open Paramotor championship that was held this year at Hull Aero Club. After 4 days of very early starts and late finishes I’m guessing all the pilots will be feeling as tired as I do.
Summers here!

Well the British summer has arrived and this year with style. We have had a good few weeks of continuous hot days with great evening flying conditions. A few weeks back the Paramotor Party Boyz organised an impromptu fly in up near Nantwich so I had an excellent weekend of thermalling during the day on my Top 80, and slalom during the evening with the Polini 200.
Great Result in French Nationals!

My fellow Parajet team pilots and I are currently out in France after competing in the French Open championship in Mondreville, South of Paris. Its been a hectic 4 days with near perfect flying conditions and a busy task schedule. I really look forward to coming out here every year as the competition is really tough and the French train lots, in fact most of the top pilots work 100 percent in the sport, so its almost like a smaller version of the World Championships.
Parajet triumphs at Boston

I have just returned from an excellent but tiring weekend in Boston Lincolnshire where the British paramotor league was held. This is the first event of the season and a great warm up for the various Open competitions coming later this year.
Party Boyz do it in style!

Well i just got back from one of the best social flying weekends in ages! A small group of friends organised a weekend fly in in Criccieth North Wales so with the camper loaded I drove the 3 and a half hours north arriving early Friday afternoon.
Midweek Fly-in
Posted on January 25, 2013 in Phil Jennings
After a few weeks of snow here in the UK I’ve been dying to get out flying but work and windy days have stopped this happening. Anyway with a good forecast for the Thursday a few fellow pilots decided to hold an impromptu fly in at a field only 15 miles from where I work.
New Year’s Day Testing
Posted on January 02, 2013 in Phil Jennings
I’ve had a shiny new Polini 200 sat in my Paramotor shed now for several months but I’d been waiting for my ankles to get back to full strength before using it. So when the weather turned on New Years day after weeks of rain, I decided it was time.
