17 Jun 13  -  Ron Begins Paramotor Training  -  Ron arrived today from Prince Edward Island to begin Paramotor Training.  Ron purchased the Aerolight Foot Launch Package that comes with a Propulse 185 Paramotor and an upgraded package with the ITV Boxer Paraglider.  We completed the theory classes and started kiting practice.  Ron is picking up the kiting quite well.  Later on we completed some paramotor training before calling it a day. Tomorrow morning we'll do a nice Tandem flight (Weather Depending).

11 Jun 13  -  Darnell Continues Solo's Flights  -  We returned to Waterside Beach early this morning and Darnell continues on with his solo flights.  He is now at the level where he can take off and land without direction for me.  After 20 flights I started to teach him Touch & Go's.  I talked him through one and after that he did it on his own.  Darnell has showed a very good safe level of flying PPG and will continue to fly back home in Nova Scotia.  Here's a video of one of his touch & go's.

10 Jun 13  -  Darnell Solo's Flights  -  This morning Johanne and I took Darnell to Waterside Beach for his first solo flights. The weather was perfect and after taking his Unit for a test flight Darnell flew 11 Flights. We're hoping to go back to Waterside Beach tomorrow morning for more coast line flying and enjoy the coast line playground, weather permitting. Congrats Darnell on your Solo Flights!!

9 Jun 13  -  Local PPG Pilots  -  This afternoon a few local PPG Pilots took advantage of the small window to fly in the Sussex area.  Their flight was not a long flight but they all commented that it was nice to get back into the air.  Afterwards Johanne took care of the guys as usual with coffee and treats!!
