What's it like to Fly a Powered Paraglider?

Have you ever dreamed of running into the air with your feet lifted off the ground where you can soar through the sky like a bird? Flying a powered paraglider is like being set free to move and see the world around you in three dimensions instead of two. The feeling of freedom to navigate yourself through the air in relative slow motion, compared to other aircraft, is dreamlike. You are not racing through the air like you might drive your car on the interstate. Its more like meandering through a hilltop meadow with a fantastic panoramic view. Your 100th flight will likely take your breath away the same way your first one will. Just ask any powered paragliding pilot. The biggest problem we have is the addiction-like quality that flyable air has for us.

I have helped hundreds of others achieve that feeling since 1998, and I can help you too! Powered ParaGliding (PPG) is the most exciting, reasonably priced form of sport aviation. It allows the average person with the dream to fly, the thrill and true freedom of uncomplicated personal flight. You can transport your equipment in any car, setup in 15 minutes, and take off from a nearby local ball field. If you have a free hour, now you can go fly. PPG is as safe as driving a car - it depends on the driver. If the engine quits, you are already under a stearable paraglider wing. The most important factors to safe flight are good equipment, thorough training, proper weather conditions, and common sense. Ohio Powered Paragliding LLC is dedicated to promoting safe, fun, personal flight. Powered Paragliding is considered an ultralight aircraft so no license or registration is required to fly a solo PPG. Training is a must and we do fly under the rules of the Ultralight Section of FAR Part 103. Click here for Federal Aviation Regulation Part 103.

We get to experience Isaiah 40:31 first hand:

"Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles."
