The fly-in was held in a paddock owned by Jeff and Lorraine Hoffman and is a kilometer west of the Milbrulong recreation reserve where the participants camped with full use of the rec. reserve hall facilities.

At one count, there were 25 machines present, mostly powered paragliders, but also two powered hang glider harnesses, two nanolight trikes, a two seat Edge trike and four powered parachutes.

Conditions on Friday were windy early, but the later afternoon and evening provided perfect weather for  low-level flying.  After a night of thunderstorms and rain, Saturday was also windy early, but once again, calmed substantially in later morning and afternoon.

Prime television came out and took footage of many of the machines in action, including a rather embarrassing misjudgement by one paramotor pilot who damaged a propeller doing a low pass.  As usual, the presence of a camera extracted much latent testosterone.

Thrust and noise level tests were conducted, and some interesting results were obtained.  King of the thrust stakes was the Airtime Products paramotor and nanolight trike, both powered by the Cors-Air engine, which acheived at least 58kg thrust, but also a level of 116db noise 1 metre from the exhaust.  Some other units were found to have rather less thrust than perhaps their owners were led to expect from manufacturers advertising....
