Paramotoring: From the Ground Up

Paramotoring: From the Ground Up

by NoelWhittal (Author)

Synopsis

The first time you see someone strap on a paramotor, start up and fly away from a field at little more than walking pace, the procedure can seem almost magic. Can you really do that? Is the age-old dream of flying as accessible as this? Yes! You can do it. Flying a paramotor is achievable by anyone who has reasonable physical coordination and the patience to learn properly. The cost is comparable with running a small motorcycle. This book is a broad introduction to all aspects of this young sport. From inflating the wing to understanding an aviation chart, it deals step-by-step with all the skills and knowledge needed to fly safely and confidently. There is sufficient information here to provide a sound basis for acquiring a certificate of competency to fly paramotors in many countries.
