How It Works

Why Learn to Fly a Paramotor?

Paramotoring gives you the freedom of personal flight without the cost or complexity of traditional aviation. With just a backpack engine and wing, you can take off from a field, soar above the landscape, and experience unmatched freedom.

  • No license required

  • Fly in open air, low and slow

  • Incredible for adventure, travel, and personal challenge

What you'll Learn in 10 Days

Days 1: Welcome to the Wing

Goal: Get comfortable with the wing on the ground and understand how it behaves in the wind.

  • Welcome & orientation
  • Introduction to gliders, wings, and gear
  • Hands-on wing handling: first kiting experience
  • Understanding wind, wing inflation, and basic control
  • Emphasis on fun, exploration, and building confidence
"They’ll come out on day one, and they’ll just start pulling the wing up, and then it’ll turn into like four hours of them running around like, ‘This is so cool." - Paul

Day 2: Big Gains, Fast

Goal: Gain consistent control of the glider on the ground and start forming habits that translate to flight safety.

  • Kiting drills continue with focused feedback
  • Students begin developing muscle memory
  • Introduction to posture, timing, and wing corrections
  • Assessing individual learning pace
“The learning curve from day one to day two is incredible. Like, it’s just, it’s a different person.”
- Ryan

Day 3: Learning the Dance

Goal: Simulate real-world conditions while staying on the ground — focus on control under more realistic launch scenarios.

  • Begin ground handling with a training harness
  • Reverse kiting techniques and transitions
  • Simulated launch positioning
  • Introduction to commands used during flight
“So I think we have a really high bar of when we’re going to let people fly, and we’ll just spend the time — we’ll spend the days — getting them dialed.”
- Paul

Day 4: Meet the Motor

Goal: Get physically and mentally accustomed to the motor before attempting powered flight.

  • Introduction to the paramotor: parts, safety, fueling
  • Wearing the motor: posture, balance, and wing management
  • “Dry run” launch simulation with full gear
  • Noise and vibration desensitization
“We introduce the motor after they have a good amount of wing control… We’ll strap them into a motor and have them just walk around and do drills.”
- Ryan

Day 5: Power Practice

Goal: Build strength, stamina, and safe coordination with full equipment before lifting off.

  • Combine motor with wing handling (not flying)
  • Practice throttle management during kiting
  • Walking launches and taxi simulations
  • Focus on transitions from kiting to lift
“You’re learning how to do everything — how to launch, how to land, how to posture… all on the ground.”
- Paul

Day 6: First Flight, Earned

Goal: Execute a safe first flight, reinforcing everything learned from ground handling.

  • Student readiness assessed by instructors
  • Supervised first flights (low and straight-line)
  • Heavy radio support and step-by-step instructions
  • Emotional milestone: “Your first flight”
  •  
“I like saying that we make them earn the wing. That’s how I say it.”
- Ryan

Day 7: Turning Point

Goal: Improve launch and landing consistency and build in-flight confidence.

  • More flights with gradual altitude and distance increase
  • Focus on safe takeoff/landing patterns
  • Wind judgment and airspace awareness introduced
  • Begin emergency procedure training
“We make sure they’re dialed before we even take off, and then when we’re in the air, they’re getting real-time feedback.”
- Paul

Day 8: Confidence in the Air

Goal: Become a more self-reliant pilot under supervision.

  • Students gain more control and autonomy in flight
  • Turning patterns, throttle control, and altitude management
  • Reinforcement of airspace safety and situational awareness.
“We’re on the radio, we’re telling them exactly what to do, but they’re making choices now — they’re flying.”
- Ryan

Day 9: Safety in Focus

Goal: Prepare for unsupervised flying and instill best practices in judgment and safety.

  • More complex flight tasks introduced
  • Emergency scenarios and recovery techniques practiced
  • Glider inspection and maintenance basics
  • Crosswind landing techniques
“We also talk about judgment. Just because you can fly, doesn’t mean you should.”
- Paul

Day 10: Part of the Community

Goal: Graduate with the ability to fly safely, responsibly, and confidently.

  • Student flight review and personalized coaching
  • Mock solo flights with limited instructor feedback
  • Final written or oral safety review
  • Certificate of completion + post-training path guidance
“When they graduate, it’s not just like, ‘Alright, bye.’ They’re part of this — they stay in touch. They’re flying with us.”
- Ryan

What you'll Learn in 10 Days

Early in the Week: Learn to Fly Ground School

Days 1–3: Mastering the Wing Before adding power, you master the physics of flight. We start with the absolute basics of gear setup and wing inflation, progressing quickly to “kiting”—the art of controlling the wing on the ground. By the end of this phase, you will have built the essential muscle memory for reverse launches and wing correction, learning the “dance” of the glider to ensure a safe transition to the air.

"They’ll come out on day one, and they’ll just start pulling the wing up, and then it’ll turn into like four hours of them running around like, ‘This is so cool." - Paul

Middle of the Week: First Flights

Days 4–6: Adding Power & Liftoff Now we introduce the paramotor. You will get comfortable with the weight, balance, and throttle control of the motor on the ground through taxi simulations. Once you demonstrate safe coordination of the wing and motor, you earn your first flight. Under constant radio supervision, you’ll launch, fly straight, and land, marking the emotional milestone of becoming a pilot.

“The learning curve from day one to day two is incredible. Like, it’s just, it’s a different person.”
- Ryan

Late in the Week: Finishing Touches

Days 7–10: Confidence & Independence The final days focus on turning you into a safe, self-reliant pilot. We move beyond basic flights to refine your launch and landing consistency, master turning patterns, and understand airspace awareness. You will practice critical emergency scenarios and gear maintenance, culminating in a final review that welcomes you into the community as a certified, confident pilot.

“So I think we have a really high bar of when we’re going to let people fly, and we’ll just spend the time — we’ll spend the days — getting them dialed.”
- Paul
