I learned powered paragliding a couple of years ago. Flight doesn't get much more person than ppg or ppc. It's such a great experience. Very cool that your uncle got to teach him.
It all depends, you can buy some cheap gear... a wing(paraglider) for a few thousand bucks if you want to do free flight. You can spend a lot more for better, more aerodynamic wings and comfier harnesses.
I️ spent 4000 on my wing + harness and I'm very happy.
I️ can't remember what I️ spent on training, but it was like 4 or 5 days in SLC, Utah. I️ went to Cloud 9 Paragliding. Great company. Might have been 1-2 grand.
If you want to do Powered Paragliding, you'll need to spend at least 3 grand on the motor / harness. I know a few people in Colorado and Minnesota that can help get you trained up for around a grand.
So, in that ballpark depending on what you want to do.
It's worth it, though. It's an amazing experience.
Probably $13k to get fully equipped. All new equipment. Training is around $2-4k. Training is optional but highly recommended. No license is necessary in the US.
IMO Nesara is real. I know people who had debts mysteriously erased, and many across the country are reporting the same thing. One of the signs of Nesara.
I do find the necessity of survival of a plane crash involve parachute lessons, in detail.
This isn’t your typical parachute. Hard to explain so here’s a video. https://youtu.be/fpf3s_uNpE0

Never thought I'd come across ppg and ppc frens on a small group like this. Nirvana over here ;)
Been flying for 5 years! Both PPG and free flight in Colorado
How expensive is it? I wanna try this, or hang gliding.

Its a bucket list of mine. I am a Private Pilot, but cannot afford to fly.
I think that's going to change in the days ahead, fren ;-)
How do you see it changing?

Thank you for that! FUN
Here are a few more pictures. https://maga.host/g/OzBQpeF
Are they wearing you uncle’s coat from the first picture?
I didn’t noticed that, but it looks like they are!
Wonder why he is missing one boot?
These are so cool! Thank you for sharing. Out of curiosity, what happened to Jr's shoe in the last picture?
No idea! I noticed that as well.
That's awesome, Patriot.
Not trying to troll but what moment in your fam's business would be bigger than this?
Had the same thought
How was your uncles personal experience with JFK Jr. ? If you had a chance to ask him.
I don’t believe I’ve ever asked him. I’ll make sure to at the next family function.
What a handsome man - and beautiful Carolyn there, too - very cool!
Would be kicking ass in politics right now if the Clinton machine hadn’t have murdered him.
or at least attempted to...
Very cool. Thanks for sharing.
That's fucking awesome. I fly paramotors, cool to see him learning PPC
