so many youtube pilots fly over so many awesome places and give absolutely no info about the area whatsoever, one of my favourite things about your videos is the descriptions of, for example, buildings. you mention when it was built, by who, what its used for etc. Its brilliant, heres to thee next 2000 subs!
I enjoy when you show off your country from above. I like to follow along on Google Maps after the video plays to check out the landmarks. Keep up the good work.
Congrats Mark! Your enthusiasm is contagious and you love what you do. That might be your secret source! This is a well deserved milestone. I wouldn’t worry about thinking you’re not a great pilot, you’ve got more practice and hours in than most and that definitely shows you can’t be bad!
Hi Mark "British Tucker G" Great to meet you today in Consett. You are the reason I've got off my a*se and got into the sport. Your content is fantastic. Please keep it going
Congrats on hitting 2K, and thanks for having us along on your flights! You're an outstanding tour guide and photographer. Cheers to many more flights (and subscribers)!
Please, just keep on doing what you're doing! Don't change a thing. It's so much fun joining you on your flights and seeing the beautiful countryside from the air. I was stationed at RAF Lakenheath in the mid '80s, and I enjoy following you on Google Earth. Thanks for sharing your FUN! Cheers from Texas, USA.
Hi Mark well done! Not surprised 2000+ the videos are perfect I think. You have inspired many to follow your passion, now my obsession. Weather looks good for Sunday! Flight 3... hopefully. Thanks again Mark.
@@markallisonparamotor I have uploaded my 1st flights to UA-cam just for the family to see really. Still awaiting that elusive 3rd flight. Securing some fields to use while I wait and binge watching all your videos again for inspiration. Keep em coming please Mark!
These videos are great Mark! No need to change anything. I've just got back into paramotoring after a 15 year break. You've really inspired me to start flying further afield. Keep up the good work!
Hi Mark. Thanks for your videos, I love the info you give on the stately homes and landmarks etc. You have kept me inspired and helped me keep going through a pretty tumultuous time getting flying including being scammed with training to begin with, by a supposedly reputable BHPA instructor, then after passing my CP power last summer having to wait for parts etc and rebuilding my engine after it seized on my last days training. Then this year mostly laid up with a back injury. I'm now waiting for my new trike to be delivered so I can get airborne again. Cheers fella!
@@markallisonparamotor True that! I have been flying a lot this season, last few weeks left for me though. Got my shoulder surgery coming up on the 1st Oct. Next year Februray I should be ready to fly again. Until then I will fly every possible day, tomorow morning seems good, so might go for a cheeky one.
You are my favourite non-GA channel Mark and you've become a mate. This is what YT is all about, having fun, making videos, sharing a passion, being real and making friends. So deserved and a real milestone, surprisingly you flew at 2,000ft in this video to match the subs so perhaps you should continue this, 3k subs, 3k flight that way knowing people they will want you to get to 20k subs so they see you fly at FL200 :-) Well done mate must be time for a meet up!
We need to arrange some kind of adventure, like flying in somewhere. Recently got my FRTOL so that gives me more options. Although there's a lot of interference which I'm currently trying to fix. Thanks for the support, and hope to see you again soon! Love your channel too! I love the 3000' for 3K subs idea!
Don't change a thing Mark! We love you just the way you are 😂😂Tucker's videos are great to watch for extreme escapism but your videos are what I actually love doing myself, just watching the beautiful English countryside drift by with a land out mission thrown in. Your commentary style and information is just perfect. Keep it up 👌
Hi Mark from my side dont change anything, your channel, how you portray the sport and the information you share is pot on. Historical sections (photographic and narration), beautiful aspects of our wonderful country from the air and sharing the world of PPG from your prospective which is your enjoyment and enthusiasm is perfect. Keep up the great work, what you do and how you put the videos together is unique keep up the great work. 👏👏👌
Congrats on 2k subs 🎉 if its worth anything, i dont feel like im a good pilot half the time either. Its who you judge yourself against when in reality if you do your type of flying well then youre probably better than 90% of the rest of the community in that aspect of flying. At the end of the day we're all here for a good time ❤
I know right, came close to not! You were there before I even had my first flight lol when I was struggling to pull up a wet Dudek Synth 31m in November over in Grendon Lakes!
Love your videos as they are. I will be over there next year and would love to catch up. Also like your commentary on buildings-castles ect. Cheers from Australia
I like watching your videos because you tell a good story about what you're doing that day and I get to fly around England vicariously though you. Keep doing what you're doing mate
Just through the short conversation that we’ve had the few times we’ve meet up has given me even more drive to get in the air, all be it in a trike!! Hopefully will get to fly with you at some point and you can do the talking!! Keep up the good videos
Great ch, I flew paramotors for just over 10 yrs , mainly up at Zippy's field! I'm also based up at LG with a plane! Still might get another paramotor set up especially seeing all you flying, I sold mine a few yrs back as it kind of died off ! Safe flying
Thanks, yes it seems to have declined in popularity recently, but I just seem to love it more and more. I've heard there's a spare paramotor in one of the hangars. 😂😉
wow, hadn’t realised you’ve only got 2000 subscribers I’ve never really looked. I just assumed you probably got 100,000 really nice channel? You’ve got a nice voice I hope you continue.
Do a vol biv! Do a 300 km FAI triangle! And most importantly, do the BOPC (you really don't need to take it seriously at all, it's just a tun way to fly somewhere new). You definitely don't need to train at all, you have a lot of the skills already.
Hey Mark, Your a great pilot and I'll be honest for me when I get into the sport I'll be doing exactly what your videos cover, just visiting places and seeing it from the air. Yeah sure wing overs are cool but.....that's not what I enjoy, like you I'm going to be a plain pilot that's what I enjoy just cruising and seeing cool stuff from a view only few see! Keep the style don't change its brilliant. I hope when I get into the sport finally I get to fly with you or even just meet you guys! Keep up the amazing videos I look forward to the next!
well deserved mate! love the format of your videos, a bit different to other paramotoring channels. do more trips away with me, I can see you in Iceland or Egypt!
Congratulations Mark on 2K subs. With the great flights and interesting places you fly and film you deserve 20K or even 200k subs! Thanks for posting. As a wannabe PPGist I would be interested in how you plan your flights, your flight deck setup, software/app choices, wing size choices, if any of that seems like a possible topic.
2k subscribers.... and I havn't even got my camera set up yet :p Might be time to replace the old GoPro Hero 2 (yes you read that right), question is, is GoPro still the best option.
I have a love hate relationship with GoPro, when they work they are brilliant, but they're no 100% reliable and I've lost footage on many an occasion, where it wouldn't switch on, or just crashed, or the battery would drain randomly. 95% of the time they're ok. I haven't tried anything else though but the dji action cams look good.
@@markallisonparamotor DJI is what I'm looking at, If I had a spare AU$200, there's an insane deal on the action 3 at the moment (until sold out). "Unfortunately" all my money is going into our Van at the moment since we're heading to my first fly in as a licensed pilot in 2 weeks.
p.s - I use the PM100 comms but feel it picks up my engine and my videos have me shouting !!!! :-( - Thinking of using my motorbike CARDO and see how that goes.
If you want to record comms, just buy a cheap amazon mic and plug it into the GoPro audio adapter or media mod. But let me know if you find something decent that works.

@@markallisonparamotor 🤣 love it man, keep up the good work!
I enjoy the aerial tours of the UK. You point out landmarks and give the history behind them.
Lots more of that to come!
I enjoy when you show off your country from above. I like to follow along on Google Maps after the video plays to check out the landmarks. Keep up the good work.
Brilliant idea sir.
I might try and do some Google Earth fly-throughs if it doesn't take too much time.
Love the variety of your videos - land out adventures with friends are definitely my favourite
Thanks mate, been a while, hope to fly with you again soon..
Congrats Mark! Your enthusiasm is contagious and you love what you do. That might be your secret source! This is a well deserved milestone. I wouldn’t worry about thinking you’re not a great pilot, you’ve got more practice and hours in than most and that definitely shows you can’t be bad!

Great to meet you too, Consett was great!
Mark. I introduced one of my friends to your channel . He said " that's what its all about and he's not a nob head" he's watched all your vids since 👍
That's the best compliment I've had. "he's not a nob head" 😂

I hope it's not too long now before you're back in the air, glad you're enjoying the content.
I hope I have managed to add a few to your subscribers Mark, I shared the Flying to London video because it was so good. Keep the blue side up mate.
Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks to you Mark for keeping our spirit alive. You have been a good inspiration to keep going for it! Hope to see you sometime soon.
We still haven't flown together!

Wow a 300km triangle is ambitious! trouble is, if I go into a competition I will get obsessed and want to win it, so best I stay out of it. LOL
Sounds like a plan!

Paranoob bought his Bailey from me 7 years ago, he videoed in my garden trying it out
well deserved mate!
love the format of your videos, a bit different to other paramotoring channels.
do more trips away with me, I can see you in Iceland or Egypt!
I would love to do more foreign trips but got other things to balance first unfortunately. Maybe next year...

Thanks Barry. Yes maybe I will include that in a future video, good idea.
Love the vids! Congrats. When did you change your headset by the way, and do you like it better?
So far I am liking it more yes, but I need to be able to connect a radio which I haven't tried yet because I don't have the correct cable for it.
When did you qualify? How many hours a year do you manage? 550 h on the moster is great work
Start to properly fly in 2020 and have 750h now.
Wow respect, that's mad progress. I only qualified end of 2021 and fly literally every window we get and only have 150h
