Hi guys. It's been a long time since I last viewed the forum so here's just a quick update.
I've taken a side step from designing planes with a difference and am now getting my hands dirty in restoring a Thruster ultralight that has been stored for 10 years. A long term project but one that is keeping me sane in my 'old age'. I'm looking at flying in maybe 9 months time.

Before anyone says anything, I'm on a diet already ;-)

Hah!

Good luck with that (The aircraft and the diet). Good to see any old bird rescued from ground-based dereliction and put back in the skies, their rightful place.

I play frisbee golf...and if I want to loose weighs I go cycling for 4-5 hrs.

My diet is less energetic. Miss one meal a day, without eating larger meals to make up for it, and eating less carbs and a lot of fish.

Yes that sounds very healthy. My favourite pizza is topped with shrimps, anjovis and tuna.

Remember that 5kgs I lost, well it's back on again. !00kgs seems to be a magnetic weight for me.
