Pretty awesome that you and your son get to fly together!

I loved his first solo flights because he made me feel proud.
I did not enjoy our first flights together as I was constantly in tension checking on him.
But now he turned to be a pretty good pilot and it is true fun!

So, what kind of pilot's license you need to fly Paramotor in Slovakia?

[@SCOUTaviation]

Ppg in slovakia is very regulated. We need ppg pilot license, regular medical checks by authorised doctors, regular checks in gear by authorised technician and liability insurance.
