Absolutley NOT, i always end up with a new harness that gets sold 3 months down the line, i'm a bit prone to impulse spending ! like the house in Brecon, that was only 170,000 though.

Anyone out there going to the Show?

I am planning to go up on the saturday.  Anyone wanting to share a ride then lets get in touch and we can share fuel costs and  the exorbitant car parking fee!  :-P

Saturday 2nd & Sunday 3rd December 2006 at the NEC in Birmingham

The Sport & Leisure Aviation Show is the UK's biggest indoor show covering the whole spectrum of lightweight sport flying, from simple paraglider canopies to 'hotship' composite microlights capable of cruising at 130kts or more, and all with the great emphasis on affordability. This 'New Aviation' is one of the fastest growing areas in sport flying, and this show is where you can catch up on new foot launched paragliders, competition hang gliders, the latest flexwing microlight and much, much more. Things move on quickly, you get to see the best new products here at the show.
