Camp Fly Camp

Been awhile since my last post. This is my new hobby. Flying Paramotor. Click and check my youtube video below

Two more years 'til retirement then camp fly camp around North America pulling 8x16 feet trailer hauling my Airmax, two scooters and a UTV with my truck camper.


Camping at a towerless uncontrolled airfield in Tracy, CA




Extendible/Retractable pole for winsock attached to my trailer to monitor wind direction

  • Out of my 50 flight, I have one engine failure at 500 feet above ground and I glide down gracefully without incident. Luckily I was in an open field
  • Able to operate from unimproved surfaces, a parachute for emergencies (engine failure), a slow cruising groundspeed, an open cockpit, relatively cheap to operate....heck whats not to like? GIDDYUP Airman. Fly safe.
