Спорт
As Part 103 operators, deciphering where we are allowed to fly can be confusing. This video will give you the know how to analyze any airspace!

Simply the best PPG learning content out there. Thanks so much for putting this together for the community. This needs to be shared more broadly!

Agreed!
This was one of the best video instructions I’ve seen to date on sectional charts! Thank you for creating this one because reading these charts are a perishable skill and it’s one of those skills that I still need a lot of work on. Great work and thank you again!

Thank you Mark!!
Thanks Micah, great video I’m a little late to your game but as someone looking into building a ULSA I appreciate your information and candor
Excellent video... we talked about this in training but there were so many things to learn it was still confusing to me afterwards. This really helped, thank you! For those who don't understand how KZread works for monitization, it's not a viable stream of income to keep making videos this solid! For the cost of a Starbucks Coffee a month (I don't drink that stuff so it was an easy choice to become a patreon) you can support this guy so he can continue being a true asset to the paramotor community.

This is already very helpful, however it is a bit different up here in Canada. The charts are very similar but not the same. I do need to keep current with this stuff as it is something one loses without constant practice.

Great vid, always need refresher on sectional as I ppg the same area and just know the rules here.
So far your airspace video is the best one for ultra light aircraft, that I have see. Although I need to learn more to safely fly ultra lights in my local area, or any where. I live in Lancaster California. I recently bought a Los Angeles sectional Cart. Palmdale airport is only a few miles from my home & Fox Field Is a few miles farther North west of me. So would be grateful for any help regarding Ultralight flying in my area.
Very informative, thank you very much. Regards from South East England.
Good one Micah, thanks.

Great explenation, I will save this for future reference because it was a lot to take in. Can you do a video about state and national parks and what height one need to have to fly over them or if one cant fly over them at all.
@liftedppg4370
Жыл бұрын
For sure, generally state parks are okay to fly over at any altitude but bigger national parks generally have special flight rules (sfr) that need to be noted. The example I used in this video was a wildlife protection area for the condors. The charts margin or even near the area itself will contain those flight rules. Definitely more to it than this sometimes. Maybe I can make a Short to go in depth on that 🤙🏻
Great explanation of the air space! Thanks for helping us understand it better. Well done!

Excellent video! There is without question a ton of information to learn, it is overwhelming to me. Thanks for breaking it down as you do.
Your the dude from Aviator Paramotor videos I've watched lol. Thank you for this. I'd like to go to training someday down there. Subbed
Learning airspace was tough. Still not entirely confident without an app to show me the boundaries. My primary lz is just outside colorado springs airspace so it gets a little confusing. Will watch this a few times

Nice how many of the examples are in my neighborhood.
Thanks for this video! I’m over in Crested Butte and get my training in September/October on the front range. I’d love to meet up/fly and learn from you about Mountain flying! My real dream is XC! Would be cool to fly over Taylor and meet up some day!

Awsome video. Lots of good knowledge here. I will refer back to it often:) Will you be doing any folow up info. like addendums that pertain to ultralights? I've heard of pilots getting into trouble with flying over national parks, reservations, towns, power lines... basiclly anything else we should know to stay out of legal trouble! Thnx

Hi, thanks for the initial information. I’m trying to buy a new ultralight but I’m confuse if my close airport KONZ is classified as G or if E is all the way to the ground. This KONZ is below the 3rd ring of class B for DTW in Detroit international airport.
Ok holy crap! It’s crazy that you point out this area to use in your video because this is my area and I have questions! There is a large field at the Southwest corner of the large circle at the top left corner of Lake Benbrook. I want to use this field for my LZ but I have questions. If launching from near Benbrook Lake would it be class G up to 1200 feet and would permission be required?

It’s in the Class B airspace but shows a 110/50 which from my understanding means Class B starts at 5000 feet and goes up to 11000 feet. So am I correct in assuming that from ground to 700 feet AGL is Class G and that from 700 feet to 5000 feet would be Class E airspace?

Enjoyed your video. And yes I do have a question. I am in the area of kipj which is Lincolnton North Carolina near Charlotte. I'm just wondering where in the heck you can find ultra light if I got one in this area? Another question I have is the 30-mile veil it says adsb out required, will ultralights do not have a TSB can you clarify? Thank you

I would recommend getting on FB (🤢) and doing some community research. I have taught people that live in the area! I know of one off the top of my head that I can get you connected with - shoot me an email if you don’t mind and I’ll get you two connected. As for the ADSB, this is only for aircraft with transponders - it allows the tower to track aircraft within 30 miles of the airfield to make sure they are not violating airspace without clearance and to provide approach/departure instructions. No requirements to adhere to for us other than stay the Hell away from B airspace haha!

Yes, there is no legal significance to the yellow. It could indicate a congested area, but it is simply what the area looks like at night. Lights ≠ people.

@@liftedppg4370 The yellow is typically inside City Limits, which would show a more highly populated area and a brighter area at night with more lights. Just because its yellow doesn't mean its congested though. Inside my city limits (and in the yellow) is a recreation area where I practice ground handling. Its surrounded on three sides by woods, and in the winter its definitely not a congested area. However in the summer theres a waterpark and softball fields, and it DEFINITELY gets congested.
Did i just hear that MOA's dont require permission? Is there a way i can contact you for further information?

This is correct! Yes shoot me an email: liftedppg@gmail.com MOA’s have hours of operation, and it’s a good idea to make sure they are inactive, which you can do by checking out the information in the charts margin.
