Learn to Fly
Your dream of flight can become a reality through paramotoring! Learn to fly your own personal aircraft all for less than the price of a used car.
Imagine the freedom of flight at your fingertips, soaring among the clouds effortlessly with no cockpit, flying freely over a lush pasture, passing through a narrow gap between two tall, green and bushy trees. You turn your head, catching a glimpse of something over the next hill, and suddenly you’re following the blue current down a wild roaming river. You’re climbing higher, exploring an unseen piece of the world you wouldn’t have otherwise experienced without the aid of your powered paraglider.
Full course: $2500
Professional training from a USPPA Certified flight school. Includes use of gear and lifetime support, come fly with us anytime!


HOW DOES THE TRAINING WORK?
New students learn at a different rate, some will solo fly sooner than others, we will make sure that the necessary time will be taken to insure that you are trained safely and correctly.
The PPG Full Foot Launch training lasts 8 to 12 days, weather and student skills permitting.
We train full time, so we can accommodate your busy schedule. Only have weekends off? That’s fine!
We train at 3 different locations outside of Austin, New Braunfuls and surrounding areas. To accommodate the locations of various students and get you accustomed to flying in more than one spot.
Gear rental is included in the training package.
Don’t worry about buying gear until you can fly it and make an educated Buy. We have a large selection to choose from!
GROUND SCHOOL
AERODYNAMIC PRINCIPLES AND GLIDER DYNAMICS
Understanding how and why a wing flies is as important as knowing how to fly it. Students will learn the fundamentals of aerodynamics and the nuances and considerations of flying the special type of aircraft we fly.
FEDERAL AIRSPACE
Just like on the road, there are rules in the sky. It’s important for pilots to know how to safely and accurately navigate the different airspaces over the United States. You’ll learn how to read FAA Sectional Charts, identify and avoid dangerous and prohibited areas, and scout out future flying trips away from your home field.
WEATHER
One of the most critical skills a pilot can develop is an understanding of the weather. Our ability to fly safely depends on our ability to know the best weather conditions from the worst. Students will learn both macro- and micro-weather considerations and how to use all available resources to fly in safe air.


FAR PART 103
As Ultralight Pilots, we’re goverend by Federal Aviation Regulation Part 103. All Paramotor pilots should know and understand these regulations in order to confidently fly your aircraft without fear of accidentally violating a law you didn’t know existed.
SAFETY
Being a safe pilot is a mindset. Not only will we give you the skills to fly safely, we’ll teach you consistent pre- and post- flight safety checks, and the psychology necessary for a long career as a competent aviator.
GLIDER HANDLING SKILLS
Before a new pilot even attempts to fly, it is necessary to have complete control of the glider on the ground. Foot launching students will learn to inflate and hold their wing overhead (Kiting). Students will successfully execute forward and reverse launches appropriate for different weather conditions.
Successfully kiting the wing is one of the most challenging parts of training, but it’s also a lot of fun to learn. Everyone picks it up at a different pace, but usually by the end of day 2, new students are getting the hang of it.
YOUR FIRST FLIGHTS
Prior to solo, students rehearse their first flight in a hang simulator from beginning to end. There won’t be any surprises when you take to the air for the first time and see the world from a whole new vantage. Solo day is the day we’ve been looking forward to. For us as instructors, it’s the most rewarding part of training.
After solo day, pilot confidence will increase rapidly as we continue to refine take-offs and landings. By flights 7 to 10, your instructors will begin stepping out of the process and allowing pilots to progress towards totally independent flight. Between 20 and 25 flights, we usually start thinking about sending you home to finish developing your skills on your own, but we’re always available to talk over weather and flight considerations as needed.
