Grabbed some sunshine!

The sun decided to shine in the UK for a day, so Mi-newtkites wasted no time in getting out the for a fly. It was a brilliant day of flying fun and advertisment, two bright pink flying pigs above Okehampton drew attention (funnily enough!) Too many pictures to show here so we've only posted a few. Head onto our Facebook to see the rest.



Bespoke hand appliqued flag work.

Some great photos of our hand appliqued bespoke feather flags! We designed and hand made these flags for Okehampton Glass. What do you think?

What a difference a week makes!

Wow! What an incredibly busy, but exciting week here at Mi-NewtKites. A massive thanks to everyone we met with yesterday, and to the people who believe in our passion at Fredericks Foundation! And another amazing invitation this morning from the people of Outset Plymouth who want us to give a talk and presentation on our business development and an interview with the Evening Herald in August! (as that is where our journey began a year ago!) Watch this space!

Piggies had a fly :)

We've had a lovely day test flying our newest addition. She flew brilliantly and we got some great photos. The sun was shining and it was perfect kite flying weather :) looking forward to next week when work starts on her 25ft brother!!

4m Pilot made ready for lifting!

Just test flown the 4m sq pilot made last week. Unfortunately due to the 100mph winds recently I decided to wait until today!
A light, 8mph wind in a slightly turbulent area, but still she flew strong and straight. All ready now for lifting some dinosaurs!
