I have been sent the following link to You Tube of the attempt by White Horse Flyers in the 1990's to parachute 100 teddy bears as the same time.

This was sent to me by Allan Pothecary from Close Encounters, after a telephone call last night when we were discussing kiting and events etc. Allan and Marion no longer undertake demonstrations as such due to distances they have to travel and problems with organisers and local councils. They are tending to support if possible events local to themselves, but still enjoy flying for themselves and if they attend any festivals or events, they will put up some of their show kites.
