Ragley Hall Exclusive

















This marquee was used as the 11 o clock meeting point on 19th September, 2010 at Ragley Hall. There was a strong wind of 20mph plus, which limited the range of kites that could be used. This venue, for 2011 with better conditions will be fantastic for anyone interested in Single Line or Stunt Kite flying. Also available, is assistance for young children to fly kites in a safe manner. The kites on this website will be used in demonstrations in 2011 at Ragley Hall accompanied by PA System playing jazz music and advice on general kite flying.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I can provide for you a kite flying exhibition and demonstration up to various altitudes. This will involve use of a PA system to talk about the different aspects of certain kites. I possess various kites up to 20 foot wingspan. Also available is appropriate background music to accompany the exhibition and competitions. We are polite to achieve a fantastic day.

We are able to allow any clubs or venues to make use of our equipment for their own competitions, which would include altitude sprints. Weather conditions will affect the kites being demonstrated.

I am also Public Liability Insured (up to 5 million) by the British Model Flying Association. I possess a PPL License. We are aware that most clubs have their own Public Liability Insurance – I can acquire Civil Aviation clearance to allow for thermal activity with care and attention for safety at all times.

I look forward to your e-mails

Yours Sincerely,

Stevie CD

Contact me for a state of the art performance.
