Apr 23/13 – Greg, 3 more PPG flights

Greg started with his paramotor training late November and managed first flight early December. Greg got nausea so bad the another flight was out of question that day. Then I put my gear away for the winter so today was the day when we will see if the nausea was a fluke or whether that will be an on going problem.

Greg was bit nervous because it was pretty much 4 months since his first and last flight. He had couple of nice forward inflations but was hesitant to add power. After about 3 tries he finally went for it only to stop running… He had a stumble and nicked the prop. We did not actually noticed it, so his first flight today was on a damaged prop.

Unfortunately Greg got sick again, not perhaps as bad as last time. We changed the prop then Greg did two more flights but very very short. Pretty much take off, large circle and lading. This did not seem to bother him too much so there is a hope after all.
