You mean paramotors?

Yeah, i`ve looked into that myself.
Nearly bought one last year!
But i probably knew it`d hardly get used, so common sense kicked in at the last minute.
They`re quite spendy considering what they are.
Whenever i see a likely looking local place (say while out walking the hound)i alawys think, `hmm, that`d be a good place for a paraglider take off`!

Still got my microlight `trial flight` to do this year.
Waiting for the weather to improve....

I say buy one, and give me a go.

Damn, this post has now reignited my interest in the bloody things.
There`s some excellent videos on Youtube, as well as loads of the inevitable `paramotor crash`!


Who wouldn`t want to do this?;
