  1. Hello,

    I am a skydiver who may be interested in learning to paramotor, I have couple of questions which I hope someone may be able to help with.

    The thing which attracts me to your sport is the freedom to take off / land / fly around local to my house rather than having to drive to an airfield several miles away. I would like to know what restrictions if any exist regarding take off / landing sites, I know that permission from the landowner is required (this is not a problem) but are there any other restrictions? What size does the area need to be? How likely is it that I can use the 1 acre field next to my house?

    The second question regards the areas where I could fly unrestriced, I live in a relatively rural area of Nottinghamshire and occasionally see paramotor pilots over my house. Where can I find information on whether I need permission to fly around in a particular vicinty or not?

    Any information will help, I am just trying to ascertain if your sport is something I want to persue before I comitt to training / equipment etc..

    Thanks - Martin
