Getting Ready

Getting Ready

Dry Run

We thought it best not to feel the full wrath of Jeremy Paxman and do a dry run first to make sure that we didn't leave anything chance on the day.

field test

Outstanding in our Field

David and "Spike" get to work erecting the kit..... meanwhile, Matt takes the pictures.

Straightening things out

Let's get things straight

David ensures that the mounting kit is straight... which is a lot harder than it looks in lumpy field.

Turbine complete

Almost Finished

The last peg goes in just as things are just about to start getting dark and the camera's battery light comes on.

Done

And we're done

After a little over 1 hour we've finally completed the kit....let's hope it's as easy for Justin from Newsnight in the morning!




On the Day

Cameras ready

Lights, camera, action!

It all get a bit nerve-wracking one the cameras get set up.

Done

Finished

Justin manges to erect the system in record time... unfortunatley there's no wind and the turbine refuses to turn at all!!!

Scale

How big is it?

We're often asked how big our systems are... this should give you an idea of the scale.

One Last Shot

We get one last group shot before our long drive home....If only it had been windy!!
