  1.  I have finally given up on foot launching in no wind situations. So I bought a trike, but I feel after watching enough videos and dry run with wing , I feel I can confidently launch .  I haven’t had any formal trike training, what is there in class that I need to fly . Important is set up  and layout. Anything else.  Ridiculous to have to pay another 2500.00 to 3500.00 for trike training. Your thoughts ?  Be gentle

  2.  Hello to all,  Can anyone give me direction as to what paramotor will be a good fit. Im a larger person 6'4" and at 300 lbs right now. I am currently working on to drop weight, in the 280 range is my goal for now. My chest size is around 54 and waist is a 44. There isnt really any place to try out the various frames. I am looking at he Air Conception Nitro 200. I talked with Eric at Aviator in Lake Wales. He said the harness is what needs to fit right. Being adjustable it may or may not work. He said I could coe out and try it on. Its about an hour and a half from me. But if ther are any bigger pilots out there, what do you fly?  I an currenly looking to buy an Ozone wing, but being a larger person it would be custom, or a tandem wing.  I havent had any experience in this sport. Im going all in ,getting the training somewhereand living the dream. I dont want to waist the money trying it out first. That could be my reserve chute money  Thanks for any help. Cant wait to get up there!  Future Flyhound
