Many people have been asking and now we are able to offer, in conjunction with TLSFx, a battlefield pyrotechnic course for re-enactors.

This will be a one day course on the 21st of May 2011.

It will be held at the purpose built facility at Faldingworth in Lincolnshire.

It will cover P2 articles pyrotechnic (in line with forthcoming legislation due in 2013)
Device types, correct handling, transport and storage. Permitted quantities and lots of hands on in order to familiarise the user with the characteristics and effects of various devices.

The course will be a full day, it will be dynamic, punchy and the emphasis will be on practical experience re-inforced with theory.

Cost is £150 per person and we are giving AFRA members preference. There are 15 places available but if there is sufficient interest we may run another course in quick succession.

Register your interest by doing the following
email pd@afra.org.uk and put in the title of your email PYRO COURSE MAY 2011.

Further details will be sent to you.

A certificate of satisfactory completion will be issued to successful participants.

Be safe - Learn from the best.

could you help me? I am looking to make a German mortar (does not fire anything) and it was originaly just for show...But I have seen people drop TLSFx thermobarics and it seems that looked pretty good! I am not sure if it was a thermobaric but what would be a good product from that company to simulate a mortar firing (just the muzzle blast not the actual projectile)?Any saftey procautions from you?

Pyrotechnics cannot be sold to or used by anybody under 18, I believe.

The poster is in the US - therefore I can not offer any useful advice as I do not know what falls in or outside of the law over there. Sorry.
Steiner is indeed correct for the UK. under 18s should not be given or allowed to use pyrotechnic devices (fireworks) as it is against the law.
