    I flew for 9 years and wouldn't change a thing. Practice and good instruction is key. Congratulations

    Outstanding job! I just recently started my paramotor training too. I got my motor dialed in and was able to do some forward launches. Very excited to fly!

      Awesome 👍😎. Enjoy the moment of learning too. Take your time. You are not going to compete right? Therefore, don't rush. That way you can get the basics down right, and many safe fun flying 🤗.

      Thank you 🤗. IMO, PPG is the closest thing to fly like a bird. It is so awesome! And it is very addictive! Have fun in your classes. Be prepared. Ask a lot of questions. Use common sense. And most of all enjoy it! 👍 Oh! And don't let anybody talk you into doing anything that you are not comfortable to do yet. Well maybe you instructor 😅.

      Thank you! 🤗. My wife won't let me get a motorcycle, but I have to fly after watching a PPG video here on UA-cam 😁. If you ever dream of flying like a bird, IMO this is it. Have fun on your PPG journey. But still Be Careful 👍.

      Yea, I away wanted to fly since I was little. This hits the spot. And yes, after working from 9 to 6 Mo to Fr, flying it is so therapeutic to me too. Paramotoring is addictive. 😁

    Amazing stuff!! Just wondering 💭 what was the reason for Jim’s motor shutting off?

    • @johngt1718
      @johngt1718  2 роки тому +1

      We found out that air bubbles was leaking into the fuel hose from the seal/fitting inside the fuel tank wall. And air will only be present when in full throttle. That was why couldn't see that during warmup and preflight check. It two person to diagnose it 🤔
