Former French fighter pilot,
Organizer of Paris-Beijing race, UL Tour de France, and a cross-channel
microlight races:
Bernard Lamy who has vast experience in running long range air races
(including a Paris-Beijing, and a cross-channel microlight race), and
will no doubt be able to advise on the viability of your project. With
best regards,Max Bishop Secretary General
"Now in October, forget
it, the weather over the area of China is very bad, something you will
never forget if you fly in. Too dangerous." " ... yes, you
must make a trip in each of these countries to meet the Director General
yourself or one of his assistants he will name responsible for your
file. You must understand that to bring 150 microlights from Paris to
Beijing is not a joke ... "
I will attend at the FAI General Aviation Committee at Toronto.
Bernard, Thank you for taking
the time to discuss, and shate first-hand, the organisation of global
aviation events!

Roger, I would like to keep
British Microlight Pilots informed about progress with the rally through
our members magazine, Chris Finnigan Chief Executive British Microlight
Aircraft Association. / thank you for permission to publish from your
website. I have written a small piece for our Nov/Dec magazine issue
informing our members about the Rally, giving them your website details,
and offering further information via our office for those who are not
on the Internet. Let's see how the interest develops and then make contact
again in about a month's time. For your interest only, I was based in
Germany (near Moenchengladbach) with the British Army until December
last year and flew my flexwing microlight to a number of German clubs
including Weilerswist near Koln. Everyone was very friendly and I was
never charged a landing fee! |

Nick's Micro Pages has put
up a prominent link to your website. PR would probably be where I
could be the most use, as I have contact details for all the clubs and
schools in the UK - although I am quite happy to help in any way which
you think would be useful -

We are using a
Pegasus
(www.pegasusaviation.co.uk) Quantum 912, flexwing microlight, capable
of carrying 2 crew for over 400 miles. Weighing just 200 kilos it cruises
at 60 mph and is capable of altitudes in excess of 16,000ft, a necessity
in the Himalayas. It is equipped with a Rotax 1200cc engine producing
80hp. An electronic engine monitoring system keeps a careful eye on
the systems. Apart from the normal flying instruments it will be equipped
with a global positioning system (GPS) to help with navigation over,
at times, uncharted territories.
Many aviation maps have been kindly provided
by Pooleys. All members of the team will spend many hours over the 6
months flying high above the Land Rovers provided the weather holds,
which will be checked through The Weather Page.
I would suggest you have flight clearances
done by a professional company such as Overflight.
From Site: into China and Tibet. With the road
at over 16,000ft, the microlight will now be flying in excess of 18,000ft,
with wind-chill temperatures approaching -60.
