Jake Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Powered hang gliding looks fun. Anyone done it? I'd like to get into it but don't know where to start. I wonder if you have to be a competent regular hang glider first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted August 7, 2008 Author Share Posted August 7, 2008 Why? I don't think powered ones need much to get airbourne, apparently just a running start on the flat is enough to get you off the ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveR Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Powered hang gliding? I've not seen that, only the paragliders with massive fans on their backs; I know you have to learn to be a regular paraglider before you're allowed to have a go with the big fans.... booo I guess it makes sense cos if you run out of fuel or the engine fails! lol People paraglide from the hills here as they're the first non-flat thing for ~30 miles. Busy days see 30+ floating about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
