Paramotor Training Eighth Day 6th & 7th Flight

Eighth day training with Dan Decker of PPGTennessee.com.

This is my first early morning launch and the first time at a new field. Two more flights. I was hoping to finish up training but we started to get a cross wind.

Did a quick taxi run and then set up for a launch. The dew was spraying me from the front tire. The first launch was good... The second, not so much. It was a great save though.

Both landings were a mess. I'm still having issues with throttle control and overcorrecting.

Isabella finished the morning by running the trike up and down the runway, getting soaked in the process from the dew off the front tire.

Filmed these with the Sony Action Cam AS30 and iPad Mini. Used iMovie to put them together.

Paramotor Training Seventh Day 4th & 5th Flight

Seventh day training with Dan Decker of PPGTennessee.com.

Had a slight breeze this evening so started out with some taxing. I managed to turn 90 degrees from one taxi way onto the main runway.

Two more flights with the landings getting a little better but still not as good as my original landing. I got some oscillation going on the second landing approach. I'm over correcting instead of just letting it fly. I also think I'm focusing too close instead of at a distance to manage direction.
