September proved a quiet month for sales from the List - two double burners and a couple of fans being the largest sales, supplemented by the usual crop of bits & pieces from the ‘Other’ section. New for October is a Cameron envelope with wheelchair basket. This has been added to the complete balloon section despite having no burner or tanks included, although the latter … [Read more...]

One long standing envelope in the List was sold during August along with the usual crop of smaller items. New for September is an attractive, relatively low houred Cameron N-90 envelope plus basket / burner (but no tanks), a price reduction for G-OINN the Ultramagic envelope and a genuine mass clear out of Arthur Street’s barn near Exeter. Rather than split his offerings … [Read more...]

July proved popular for trading with 2 envelopes, 3 fans and a trailer leaving the List - and Zebedee selling another trailer and a basket before they got into these pages. New for August is a long stored 1997 special shape, the last of the ‘J&B bottles’ to be built which would seem an attractive proposition for someone wanting a ‘shape’ with low hours. Moving from … [Read more...]

Following a few good ballooning days in early June and the successful Midlands Air Festival at Ragley Hall trading has taken an upturn of late. Two complete balloons sold from the List last month as did the usual crop of smaller items. Additions for July start with a tip-top complete Cameron A-140 with many extras including a bespoke 4-wheel trailer. Although 10 years old … [Read more...]

This issue has been produced slightly early in the hope it will appear on the website and drop through letterboxes ahead of the Midlands Air Festival at Ragley Hall, Alcester on June 4/5/6th. Organiser James McDonald and his team have worked hard to produce the first large open meet since Icicle 2020. Yes, there are/will be Covid restrictions, but let’s hope it goes down in … [Read more...]

Regrettably April was another month in which we received no new ads in readiness for this issue. Whilst it is understandable that most people are finding homes for their spare kit via social media for free, they are missing out on the worldwide reach of the Zebedee List and over 700 subscribers who get Zebedee News each month by email. This was demonstrated by a nice mail we … [Read more...]

A complete 105 leaves the List this month along with plenty of ‘bits & pieces’ as pilots gear up to a return to flying. Your scribe ‘christened’ 2021 on 31st March with 25 minutes solo. Good to be airborne again! More small items are new to this issue - a Cameron pilot restraint, an Aircotec Alibi, a set of sandbags for anyone ‘going gas’ and a refurbished Rego manifold … [Read more...]

Although no envelopes have left the List during February we know of enquiries for at least 4 of those in these pages so are hopeful of sales soon. Andrew Lovell has been successful in selling all his tanks and several small items from Sweden. Joining the List for March is a 2002 build LBL 105A from Derek Grimshaw, this having been on our ‘Stop Press’ for several weeks … [Read more...]

As expected business has been slow during January with continued lockdown in the UK and many countries worldwide. One complete balloon leaves the List this month, whilst a complete Tekno 50 in France and a complete LBL 105A join these pages, the former from ‘Stop Press’. Also new this issue is a Cameron/Honda 5.5hp fan, a Cameron Shadow/Stealth Double burner (ex ‘Stop … [Read more...]

As we reach 2021 the UK is seeing a rapid worsening of the Covid situation with hospitals, particularly in the South East, reaching capacity and another general restriction on flying. This Intro is being written on what should have been the Icicle Refrozen weekend, which typically has dawned bright and frosty with light winds! ‘New’ for January is a long lost Cameron N-90, … [Read more...]
