Guest Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 All, as you may may not know Pete an I are currently in Sweden running a paramotor club instructors course what you won't know is that for the last two years on and off I have been talking to the Swedish aviation authorities about it As a result, we 'the paramotor club' are now officially the 'licence' issuing body for all of Sweden. (Where a licence IS a requirement of the law.) This is huge! Now one is on board some of the other people / countries I have been talking to will soon start to follow suit I hope. Needless to say, I am a very happy chap! :-) SW Sent from my iPhone using PMC Forum mobile app 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 We had a meeting today and covered a number of matters that are relevant to any PCOM (Paramotor Club) students (anyone taught by a PMC instructor) 1. FIA licence. (we will soon be able to issue FIA licences for Paramotoring.) 2. We can already issue Swedish licences (also good for Germany) 3. We are now talking to the Swedish insurance companies who offer, 3rd party, accident cover, and kit cover... They are excited to hear from us as you would expect. 4. We are looking at a combined membership option where all of the above insurance will be provided at point of membership. LOADS more was talked about and actions for both side have been set. We will have another meeting in around 2 months time. SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinton Sequerah-Salmon Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 I'm going to be making regular trips to sweden. not a paramotorist yet but i googled if i could fly a PM in sweden and this is the first thing link that pops up. I'm even more encouraged by this news. Once i'm flying in the uk, whats involved in getting me airborne in Sweden or is it easier (paperwork wise) to learn there so that i start off with their licence?
