That’s owning a plane in a budget. You can add a couple of fancy instruments if you can stretch the money a bit 😊😊

NIce lauch. For those watching though, don't start the motor on the ground like this. As they say, "on your back or on a rack". If the motor goes to full power, there's a decent chance you'll end up chopping parts of your body off.

Bad habit to teach new people...ground starting

You make it look so easy! How many times did it take to get comfortable?

About 50-100 flights. I still get nervous when my cute girlfriend is watching. 😉

She’s a lucky lady! ❤

I’m not sure I’m with you taking off over open water like that. Or did it only look like it because of the viewing angle? I’m concerned because if you end up in the water due to a loss of power or unexpected wind shift as in your cornfield takeoff, your paramotor could drag you under faster than than you can release the harnesses. Please be careful, brother!
