Don't forget any aviation related
sports are considered
extreme and the risk factor is always present ,don't
try to learn the ropes on your own ...!
The risk factor can be reduced
considerably by taking flying lessons untill you are ready to fly safely on your
own...
Almost anyone can learn to fly a powered paraglider. However, a degree of physical fitnessis required. It is really quite easy to fly. The pilot's attitude to safety and airmanship is key for an accident free flying career. You must learn to become proficient with the paraglider before putting on a paramotor.
To safely fly a powered paraglider, we recommend that you take the time to learn the basics, and you will live long to enjoy your powered paraglider for many years. In our training, you'll be flying the first day without power from the top of training hill, learning how to control the paraglider on the ground as well as in the air. Inflation techniques, kiting the wing, launching, turning, controlling the airspeed, approach and landing are all skills that you will need to master.
Once you have mastered the basic skills, it's time to put on the power! We will familiarize you with the paramotor powerpack: assembly, disassembly, preflight, starting, throttle control, power cutoff, fuel/oil mixing, maintenance, torque and thrust effects, special dangers, transporting and storage. In about a week of paragliding and paramotor instruction, most students are ready for their first extended flights with their very own powered paraglider.
There's an old saying in aviation: "There are old pilots, and there are bold pilots, but there are no old, bold pilots!"
