    Inverters are the way to go, we run 2000 Watt one's on the vans as mobile workshops. If you get up to 700 Watts you can get a camping kettle and brew up too!!! A cheap one is by a company called Northern Tools.

    Hi Not what I have seen. I do Para display and have only seen regular Ammo boots or SMS used. I'm not sure about modern para, just ww2. Didn't need the high boot as wear waiters to keep the trousers in. The trousers were either the standard BD trousers or the Para trousers with the extra pockets and slit pocket for the fighting knife. Cheers Paul

    I can second that, get in touch with Rob Van Meek, good bloke, does all the parts books and manuals. Also From Welbike To Forgo is an excellent book and reference material. Make sure you get the up to date reprint, more info added than on the earlier one's. Good luck and plenty of pics please.

    I would love to come with all my para kit and equipment but way too far, but would love to put on a show for our cousins over the pond! As for the Daks guys, would be brilliant. Take plenty of pics please and post. Have a great day and well done to all.

    I collect British ww2 Airbourne kit and equipment. Weapons and associated bits n pieces, cleaning and repair kits etc. Been collecting since was a kid, but was anything and everything then, moved on from badges and medals to uniforms, then equipment and finally weapons. Do a few displays with my local MVT, enjoy meeting the public and chatting about my stuff and explaining.

    Hi, any ideas where I can get some WW2 (era?) British Para leg bag straps and attachment s etc. I have two ww2 dated bags but no straps or drop chords! . I'm looking for two sets of either genuine or repro. Even borrow a set and get some made. Please a set let me know what's out there and available. Also the Quick Release coupling that connects to the belt. Many thanks
