James, who has been flying for two years, said: “I live in Glastonbury and use a farmer’s field here to fly from so have been watching the prep work for the festival for the last couple of months .

“The paramotor lives in the back of my van so is always ready for a fly if I’m driving around and see a nice field to fly from.
