This video has a lot of takeoffs and landings from most of the pilots that were in attendance. I practiced my baby wingovers known to most pilots as turns, that is all it takes me to be a little motion sick. After @WillFly fell down on the bullseye I tried to land on it and oh yeah fell down just the same. #likewillfly #aviation #moster #apco #dudek #flyin #paralife #poweredparaglider #power2fl...

Great video, I ❤ it more then anybody else's.. The best!! Where do you fly from? Where's home?
@@DaleBartel we are on the south side of Atlanta GA
I've often thought that if we were immortal we'd eventually be bored because we would have done everything. I get it. Shifting interests are a thing. I do it all the time!
@@marcusvaldes if I miss it too much I will be back but happy I got to do it
Mark, I really enjoyed your videos. I must have missed it if you mentioned it, but why are you selling everything? Why are you quitting?
@@davidis7 just want to try and spend more time with my wife hopefully camping and doing things together.
SOLD-SOLD-SOLD-SOLD Free flight harness U-float Wind sock pole Paramotor cover E prop Helmet
Still waiting on that “Just kidding, folks!” 😂
@@Maxrider2009 you know I’m talking about Abby!
Can I ask why you are selling?
@@flierbill just want to spend my time doing something with my wife. More camping at nice places not flying field.
@@paralifeppg That's a good reason, my friend.
You’re one of my absolute favorite PPG video makers. I’m going to miss your flying for sure!
@@gerrycollins9409 thank you very much, I really enjoyed the process of making them and I am going to miss that part.
Me too gonna miss your content
@@brycemannn4847 thank you very much
Why are you stopping? I loved your videos
@@tango_sierra8608 just want to spend more time with the wife and maybe doing some other things. Thank you I loved making them.
Damn brother, I’m going to miss you and the pup at the fly ins my friend never thought you would quit
@@jeff28092 I will still bring her to some flyins and enjoy camping with y’all.
I'm thinking about doing the same 😢
@@flierbill it doesn’t have to be permanent if you change your mind and miss it terribly.
@@paralifeppg They sell new shit everyday!
I got chu a dollar!
Nice one Mark; I always felt that the Gin Falcon compares well with other wings in it's class. For sure it's a near direct replacement for the MacPara Colorado and arguably a similar wing to the Hadron 3 (although the H3 owners seem to disagree). Certainly you know that a tolerance can be built up to motion induced discomfort by repeated exposure and gradual increases in G-force and other accelerations? If you find any part of it enjoyable I encourage you to continue to explore the adjacent areas of the flight envelope.
Thank You
Are you going to Oshkosh air venture ?
@@captbrad8235 no sir too busy for me
Nice flight. Should have foot dragged Dega. :)
@@doranish123 that would have been cool but did not want to stir anything up at my buddies LZ. Thank you for checking out the video.
Tyler Perry gonna knock you out of the sky with a massive R/C Plane.
@@HeadTester that is possible!
yeah Pablo miss much, missing a fly it's much hahahahaa hahaaaa
@@FlyBabyFlyPPG hopefully he is ready to go now
@@paralifeppg hahahahaa for sure hahahaa
congratulations Mark enjoy your Baby.
@@FlyBabyFlyPPG was fun and helps build confidence
@@paralifeppg yes respect for that my friend mark. we're conservative pilots even i have SIV i keep respect of the beast.
Look at you GO, buddy!!! Infinity tumble is next!!! 😊
@@Maxrider2009 yes that is a hard no
Mark you need to fly my 24 falcon, not as spicey on turning but smooth to fly
I would love to try it.
That was a Fun flight, it did suck on the way back but i want to come back and explore more, there are some cool places to see for sure. and you did great on that wing, that LZ was nice for sure but i didn't realise i was that close to the trees when landing.😟.. I was trimmed out trying to keep up. lol
Glad we got another good safe flight in. You may have to come stay a night or two.
Nice, I'd love to try this wing. I was able to fly a Hadron 3 last weekend but the takeoff's on them can be very tricky. I blew my first try (my fault, too much brake) but nailed the second.... you have to be on your game. That Falcon looked like it launches very easy and that's what I am looking for, plus something that I can carve on.
I should not have taken a couple of steps back before launch. It almost over shot.
So many folks I trust just love that Falcon,,,,,,prophetically, Matt Bell said it spoiled him for less well behaved wings,,,,,I thought you being an APCO guy, you’d try out an F3 Mohawk,,,,,
@@keithgrey I will try a couple of wings in that size before I buy one.
Before long, you’ll be on an 18 m wing passing everybody up like it ain’t nothing lol
@@PPGShane Negative I think a 22 would be good for now.
Excellent Mark. R u liking those faster wings?
@@pittsjohn57 Yes sir, would like to fly a couple different 22m wings.
@@paralifeppg I’m flying a 21 Solo mostly. Seems to be the right size but when I switch to my 24 Solo or my 25.5 Uni, it’s like sitting on a cloud and landing is so easy.
Awesome video. Also, the tall grass is a complete pain in the ass. My airport is a small municipal airport that I fly out of and they refused to cut the grass. It sucks but at least I’m flying.
You can try asking for permission to cut a section but they probably will say no to that. Thanks for checking out the video.
Man.... this is so so cool!!!!!
Thank you for checking it out.
Great takeoff in the tall grass! Not ugly at all, considering.
Thank you buddy.
Another super video, Mark! Keep em coming!!! What an adventure!
Thank you my friend
What an epic adventure, Mark. Would love to have been a part of this!
It was a great flight. Thanks for checking out the video
Nice fly mark, you go to sleep to early hahahaaaa
I am old and soft!🤣
@@paralifeppg hahahahhaaa hahahaaaa yeahhh right hahahaa
Wow! That looked like a wall @9:14 Good One! Mark.
I must be amazing at how the car pins you in the seat.
I always love your flights!!!!!
Thank you, Miss Angela. It was fun.
It was a great flight. I had a blast. Hope you enjoyed it. Next time we can go around the dam after Pablo gets his fuel consumption under controle. Sorry for the tall grass. FYI you got me back on the next one😂😂. Great video
Thank you for inviting us over. It was great.
Nice Tucker shirt there at the end. That wing had a hard time on takeoff. Trailing edge had a strange floppy pit in the center.
Yes I think Nick is embarrassed to wear a ParaLife shirt out in public.
That looks soooooo fun
It was a nice flight. Thank you for checking it out.
Those legs and yellow socks just doing something for me. Lol. Yeah there are some water there huh.
Those are my lucky magic socks…
Nice flight. Looked really dark when you landed! It was hard to see the ground. You have a good friend there.
Thank you for checking out the video. It was a good flight.
Nice !
Thanks Bill
What were you using that warned you about other traffic?
I use the paid Gaggle app. $49 a year works really great in my opinion. Thanks for checking out the channel.
nieźle 🤩🤩🤩
Thank you for checking out the video
What if you drop your phone
Some people tether them, but there is risk of a tethered phone wrapping around your arm or leg and going into the prop. It is probably better to risk dropping it or put it on a knee board.
It is on a small tether a the bottom and I keep it in my side pouch. Thank you for checking out the video.
Uh oh, Pablo!!!!! Glad he was OK. Break anything on the motor? Sounded like he said he rolled? Love the vids, buddy! Keep em coming! 👍
Nope he has no motor damage. Thanks for checking the videos out.
Flint river is that the east side of Michigan then?
We are 30 mile south of Atlanta GA
Yep... Interesting flight! 🥴. It was awesome until my fuel disappeared...
Thankful you did not get hurt and no damage. Stayed calm and kept flying it.
More excellence!!!!
Thank you @pittsjohn57
Glad Pablo was okay. How did you like that landing in the relative dark?
I picked up a little tail wind but it wasn’t too bad. We push it until the last couple of minutes once in a while.
Oh no pablo hope your all good.
Just a little skin, good thing he is tough.
😄 Funny!
