Get yourself a flyke.

Years ago we was in Atlantic city and just sitting there on the board walk and we could hear this buzzing noise and something like this came across the sky then another oe a few minutes behind, at that time they did look amazing, something out of James Bond it seemed.

Yes,i have had lessons before,i want to get a paramotor,but not that bike one,just the strap on your back and off you go one,but living in a no-fly zone for them at the moment its not practical,if i was living somewhere with perfect flying days like thailand i would have one like a shot.

Thats the ones we saw, the one that is strapped to your back and you sit in a harness thing.
Must be amazing being up there just going along seeing the world from a different view.
I would love to have a go and a parachute jump wow i would love it, but i get s worked up and i chicken out, now if i could just get strapped in and up and jump out tandem i must add it would be great but its the lessons and having time to think about it.

My son did a jump with skydive pattaya,he might be doing another one in march,anyway the chief instructor is a guy called jukka,so i paid for my boys jump and i paid for a guy to drop with them and video and photograph the jump :smile: last year,i cant remember the month,i opened the paper,there was a small paragraph about a photographer who had died when his chute had twisted as he jumped,yup it was the same guy.

O dear, i am afraid when your time is up , its up, and there is nothing we can do about it.
I have just been browsing this tandem jump and i thought it would cost more then the price, and what a great gift to give Emma and me too, better then a new pair of shoes or a stupid bag, plus if we get the video too, memories,
It is something to look into more and the best ones to go with, being here in Derbyshire i am sure there are loads of clubs around.

WOW,thats a lifetime memory for you both,when your old and grey in your dotage you will still look at the pics and smile,and your street cred will be boosted with the grand children,try and get a GoPro and the wrist/hand strap,and yes get it video'd,bags grow old,out of fashion,straps break etc,lifetime memorys always remain.
