I'm sure you've heard this before but you would be a great instructor. Your voice instills confidence. And your instructions are concise.

@Time Traveller That's the sad part.

Usually when the kill switch doesn't work, it's either a wire or the motor is dieseling. Dieseling is when carbon builds up in the cylinder and get's so hot it keeps the cylinder firing even without a spark. I almost think it was dieseling since in the video Jaclyn said her motor felt hot and you noticed the smoke from the exhaust. If a motor won't die because of dieseling, while in the air, hold the kill switch and go full throttle. This floods the cylinder with cold fuel allowing the kill switch to work.

The engine shutting down when Tucker pulled the spark plug wire indicates this situation was electrical, not a carbon issue, easier and cheaper to correct.

Yup, was just a wire crimp.

Hurray for AVIATOR PPG!!!!! You guys rock! I'll definitely consider you guys when I'm ready to train and get my gear! Tucker, this was so fine! As you document Jaclyn's training (really her just getting better at it and learning the finer points) your followers will also benefit and enjoy the flying! I know I will, that's for sure! Plus the folks at Aviator PPG will have some strong voices silently advertising their services and gear! That setup that Jaclyn test flew in Florida wound up being the ideal set up for her; light enough motor, stable enough wing, plus it handles nice for her and she feels safe - all important for anybody. Plus, she feels safe having you just feet away from her while her experience builds! You'll still have your solo adventures, but when you guys fly together, your relationship will also grow!

buurrrrp.. "Are you broken?" I love Jaclyns' humor! Jaclyn what about a wind suit? Then you're never cold again!

At the end of the video you asked for video ideas? I'm in! 1) I'd love to hear your thought process during acro. You can say things like, "Now I weight shift, pull brake, shift the other way. I like to see my wing above/below/at the horizon. When I was just starting a mistake I often made was xxx." I could go on but basically narrating your acro would be awesome. 2) Your idea of showing Jaclyn's progression is a great one. I can see her one month from now quickly narrating her own preflight inspection, launching in the air, and being more bump tolerant. You need a slower wing though, your speed ranges don't seem to overlap right now. :) 3) XC flight with me. Let's go across a state and make a series out of it. 4) SAT course (I bet instructors would line up to give you free training). It might add helico's to your list of tricks too. That's all that comes to mind so far.

These Jaclyn flight videos are so fun to watch, they put a huge smile on my face. It is awesome to watch new pilots experience flight! Love all your stuff Tucker.

Happy to add myself as a subscriber! Not for the flying, as I am content to live vicariously thru you. For now anyway. I want to convey my respect for the manner in which you present your sport and yourself. Not egotistical nor pompous. Rather as if the whole world is your friend and you want to share your passion with your friends. You show respect for nature, for others property and livestock, the common sense of someone much older in having fun in the sport while being safe and following the rules established for your safety as well as others. I look forward to each new video, as well as watching your perfect partner grow in her love of aviation. She has the perfect instructor. My thanks for what you do, how you do it, and sharing it with us...

Much appreciated Rick! :)

My big take away from watching these is the importance of building confidence and comfort in the air. I can tell from her comments that she isn't comfortable with the bumps and turbulence (I can relate, I earned my private pilot last year, but I still don't like turbulence). I can see the benefit of having someone with more experience fly with you as a beginner to reassure you that what you are feeling is ok and normal. I like your decision making on landing, giving her the option to go around if it didn't feel right. I think you are doing a good job of building her skills. Way to go Aviator PPG by the way. I have become a fan of their company through your videos. When I am ready to train, I think I will use them.

Exactly, I'm glad to offer her perspective on what is and isn't safe. She may think it's time to land in light turbulence but really it isn't a big deal. I appreciate the feedback!

I'm at her stage right now and I can tell you 'i'm feeling cold' means, "I would like to feel the ground under my feet right now". Its really hard to admit that you're a bit scared or uncomfortable when you're doing something that is suppose to be the coolest most incredible thing in the world... I bet you've forgotten that feeling...;)

This is the language of an "instructor" who thinks they know what is best for the student. They say that men should never teach the women in their lives because it'll always end in tears. I'm telling you now, Jaclyn was saying the things that were on her mind and you were brushing them off. When she said she was cold you ignored it and instead kept flying. She said it again and you kept flying. Keep that up and you will not only lose a flying partner but also maybe a life partner too. Listen to her more closely. And maybe take some lessons yourself in teaching... the best doers are not always the best teachers.

@TuckerGott

Heh, I just talked to Jaclyn about it. She was definitely cold, not just using it as an excuse to land. You can see her gopro shaking. Also, there are parts of the video/conversation that don't make the cut. We agreed to make it to the river. When we made it there and she was still cold, I asked her to climb for more safety and we turned around.

Hehe, sorry to play the life coach part and making some assumptions on my part having been there and done that some years ago. Girls don't have the fat reserves or body mass that us guys do and I find can be perpetually cold when I am baking (at least until they hit menopause lol). It's happened to me in snowmobiling, skiing or even just riding in the car. Sometimes it is best for all to just turn around, go land, bundle up and try another takeoff. Best of luck to you both!

This is so cool! The whole channel has changed now! With Jaclyn flying regularly we will get to watch a newby become an experienced PPG pilot. We watched Tucker but he was at least somewhat experienced when the videos began. This will be more informative. Congrats. Jaclyn on the new equipment! Glad you found a good set up that works so well for you. I am looking forward to you heading out with Tucker to the areas he has already shown us. I am beginning to feel like I know your area in Jersey pretty well! One thing I have learned is that (compared to enclosed fixed wing ultralights) ppging is COLD so you want gloves and warm clothing even when it is too warm to wear them at ground level. The ability to selectively shuck layers in flight or to at least open up ventilation is a great asset. I often cover my face and hands when doing "breezy" flying even when it is rather hot. Watch that pony tail. Try to find a way to really secure it from going back into that prop. THAT would ruin a day quick! Congrats again and have a lot of fun but don't forget to bring us along!

"I might just go up real quick and come back down" *glare*

Man, APPG is killing it on the KZread front with ya'all, Woody, and flitetest. Smart guys. I bet those sponsorship's pay off as it seems they are already. You were the first I heard of them from.

Please keep doing these videos. It's great for women to gain confidence in feeling that this is something that they can do....especially since she's petite. These videos could be really important to get more women in the sport. You should ask her what she thinks other women would be interested in seeing to get them excited about learning, maybe do a short series on that. Anyway, keep it up bro, I'll be up there one of these days when time and money allow. Peace!

Awesome seeing Jaclyn get in the air, and awesome of AviatorPPG for hooking her up! I do think it would be awesome to see her progress, as I'm about to start learning myself. The Sena headsets are great, but range is a bit limited, keep that in mind. I'm working on getting my Sena headset with the BT backpack to work with my Sony camera. With the right adapter cable, the backpack unit should be able to plug into any 3.5mm stereo mic jack on any camera, and it should work fine. Give Jaclyn a high five and tell her to stay awesome! Fly safe, y'all!

Thanks to you both for sharing your flight! Love it.

I'm amazed how much patience you have with Jacquelyn. I only wish I could be more like that. You're a good person!

Well since you asked I'd like to see some more flying in warmer weather. Like Arizona or California New Mexico Texas etc. Desert areas flying over a ghost towns exploring from the air. Documenting Jaclyn's progress is really good also. Enjoying that!.

Great video. Looking forward to following her progress in future videos. Hope you are both feeling better.

Jaclyn was such a good sport about this, even though she was freezing, She kept trying to hint she wanted to turn back, but she didn't want to disappoint you. She's a keeper.

Great video Tucker. Jaclyn looks a lot more comfortable and confident with her flying. You're a competent and enthusiastic instructor. Keep having fun....cheers !

So happy to see you both flying together. Can't wait to see more of both of your flights. Gonna be a good summer!

When I first started watching you, I wasn't sure if Paramotor was something I wanted to take up at age 57. Your flying looked a little radical. After watching Jaclyn, I could totally see myself cruising at a nice slow pace. Found a certified instructor just 20 minutes away through the USPPA, I'm looking forward to taking some lessons as soon as we finish renovating our new home and get moved in. Thanks for your great channel.

Let's see more videos of Jackelyn's progression as a PPG pilot. We need more women in this sport! I am relatively new to PPG with lass than 20 hours since converting from free flying Paragliders so what I and other newbies find helpful is a running commentary about what you are looking at as you fly, how and why you make decisions throughout the flight etc. Well done Jackelyn! Keep them coming Tucker!

Nice job Jaclyn! It's nice getting this new perspective of someone starting out.

I'm just starting lessons so these videos of helping and explaining to Jaclyn is really helping me! Thanks!

very cool to see you got your lady up in the air with you! Must be an absolute blast flying together. Great video again Tucker. I enjoyed it a lot.

Videos with another person in them are so awesome. Life's good for you guys.

Congrats on the new motor and wing! Look forward to seeing many more flights from you two. Enjoy every damn second of it!

These last 2 videos are very helpful. I am a new pilot and I watch all of your videos. I constantly wonder if you just always have better weather or just are more accustomed to it. I love hearing her concerns and thoughts and you coaching her through them. It is very helpful for me and my progress. PLEASE​ keep them coming.

I love watching you two have fun flying together! Keep em coming!

Thanks for sharing your adventures in the sky,, 😊

Thats awesome great for her! I cant wait to see more dual vlogs with both of you

keep doing what you are doing, just more of it, more often! I would still like to see a 2-3 hour loop of you flying, to run in the background while I work. well done, again, Jaclyn. keep up the good work, and remember that experience breeds confidence. Tucker is a fine mentor. if Tucker is not worried, then Jaclyn should take confidence from that until her own experience instills it inside. looking forward to more, asap.

Absolutely love these videos! Keep it up you two! Glad to see a couple doing these types of things together. Safe flying Tucker and Jaclyn! You have definitely convinced me into getting into this type of flying and i will for surely be getting a hold of APPG for training, maybe one day we'll fly together!

I really enjoy your videos! thanks for your inspiration to PPG

Keep the videos coming Tucker !!! Good Job Comandante !!

Awesome vid! Thanks for sharing!

Great forward launch jaclyn , awesome video .

Another great Tucker and now Jacklyn video! Can't wait to see the future videos. Super Jelly over here.

Great job jacklin. Hang in there your doing a great job

Jaclyn is really taking off. Pretty amazing really. What a great buy Jaclyn. Always nice when the right gear falls in your lap.

Love her reaction at 17:45 when you say you might go up again! I'm 100% trying this.

Epic! Loved it. Hope you are well now.

Very nice comentary. Thanks for the instructions as you go.

congrats Tucker! I also have a wife that just got into paragliding, and soon she will be skydiving with me as well... Its awesome to have a companion in sports!

Damn kids and their flying lawn mowers. Well done Jaclyn and Tucker. Another great video. You sounded cold, very cold Jaclyn. I could even see your camera shaking. Tucker, I'm thinking maybe some pilot interviews but in the air with some other folks you fly with. I like the Q&A's at 500 feet and maybe perhaps a guided tour of some local attractions, say like historic or geographic features.

Glad to see she got that set up, she seemed so happy with it in the last video!

Congratulations Jaclyn!

Awesome video and channel Tucker!

Every single video you've done has been an absolute joy to watch. I love the new series you are doing with Jac...

Way to go Jacyln! Great job. keep up the great flying!

Her being cold could be her having a fever from being sick. She is inspiring to me! Thanks for another fun video!

So cool you guys are so fun to watch

That was AWESOME!!!! Good Job!!!

Great Vid guys.😉💪👊👏. I hope your well now.

Great episode! You two have me sitting here dreaming up how I can get myself and my wife started with gear, setups and training. Can't wait for the next video.

Gear up girl!!! We ride snow mobiles and stay warm!! Its all in the gear!!....They make electric everything!!

Cant wait to see more

Keep posting awesome videos !

Cool Beans! and Congrats!

Nice edit, saw the heated comments below and kinda laughed. Success breeds critics Tucker. Believe me your doing a good job. Looking good up there Jaclyn!!!

How awesome. No doubt Jaclyn is a natural, and she has a very good teacher. You two work together so well. Very inspiring. :) May I suggest a playlist with all of the videos in her progress? I've watched a bunch, but I'm not sure if I've missed any. Heh

Your videos are great and very interesting. Keep up the good work.

- I need to do this at least once. Looks like so much fun!

Glad to see you back in Jersey - much better views

What an exciting video!!!

every since I watched your 15000ft video I've been hooked on paramotors, thanks Tucker I think I got my work cut out for me in the near future lol I'll be working Sun n Fun next year in paradise city hope to fly with you next year!

Great Vid Tucker! Can you make videos with tips, for pilots that want to progress trying some news movements? keep them comming! A big hug from Argentina for you and Jacklyn!

Cool video. Gotta try this soon!

Oh my gosh she is sooo cute! You two are the cutest couple ever! lol So glad i found this channel

Great video, this is one of those videos i can show to my wife to ease her mind about paramotoring.

Just watching you both, I think I got this. Can't wait for summer.

She says she is freezing five times... You wanna go back? Lol... just land and warm her up. Then head back... Burp before landing too... She is a gem.

Nice to see you two flying together . . .

Jaclyn, you ROCK! I wish you had your gloves :( Thanks for sharing this with us guys!

I really enjoy watching your videos .I'm inspired to buy me a paremotor now thanks

loving the vids with Jac

Saw awesome... seriously my new favorite channel. I really need to get back in the air!

Jaclyn was just hilarious from start to finish in this one! LOL

Awesome!!!!

Tucker, I've got a problem. I have this new addiction, and it's fierce, got the itch like a mound of furious red-hot fire ants. Addicted to your videos! I want to Paramotor so bad! Until then I'll live vicariously through you.

love the dual sena vids and would love to follow the progress of jaclyn!

She's lucky she got the 130. AC is discontinuing it and focusing on the Nitro. MORE POWER! I can't wait to get back to work as that's what Santa is bringing me! E Start and clutch! After more research I've decided on AC as they seem to have the fewest mechanical problems and it's still within my weigh range. Now I wonder if you can special order a different color or have to do that ourselves to match the wing! LOL Blue Sky's and Safe Journeys!

That looks like a ton of fun.

APPG really seems like a great company !!!

Love all your videos dude!! Kind of wanna get my own paramotor and take to the skies!! I'm literally terrified of heights but I don't care!!!

Another great video

this is the coolest shit ever, you two are awesome. I have to learn this! subscribed!

Awesome vid!

Great video! Can't wait to do this with my wife.

I really like the dual vlogs! I want to be able to do this one day please keep up the great content!

When you’re a little nervous, you tend to shake like when you’re cold. Great flying!

You are a great instructor

Great Job Jaclyn!! Tucker, better try flyin the Universal when flying with her. This dual V-Log is great! The camera is chattering since she is so cold.....

Nice, great edit man.

Great video. Get well.

When I first started riding motorcycles I always underestimated how cold I would get. Now I know if I'm not hot before getting on, I will be hypothermic when I get off. Layers and wind protection.
