       it's going to be funny when people just start investing in fan operated paragliders because they don't trust planes or nigger pilots

       @Hank_Ikes The fan operated ones are called paramotors.

       They're too slow. What you may see are people using small craft to hopscotch the distance of their fuel tank across the states and the globe. Dangerous, but far less so than an aircraft put together by brown people.

       @rher @Hank_Ikes You technically can circumnavigate the world in a small 6 seater dual prop like a piper but you have to remove the back seats and put a fuel tank back there. Not practical but people have done it

       @ForbiddenDreamer @nugger @Hank_Ikes flying from place to place for a living i find the break even point of flying vs driving to be about 5 hoursdriving has an advantage even when i don't pay for the tickets in that it gives you much better flexibility, but fatigues you more

       @Hank_Ikes Only problem is FAA and other groups will probably regulate them out of existence, even if their crash rate was less.Although of course all the rich shitlibs will be given huge sums of taxpayer money to try and force their dream of battery powered air taxis so they need not actually risk their lives walking around their walkable cities.

       @nugger @ForbiddenDreamer @Hank_Ikes You can get a bit faster than that but not much. I want to get a paramotor and classes but just to do shit like take 2 weeks and fly over yellow stone to glacier national park while camping when I stop each day. As a real form of transportation like you have said its a no go.

       @nugger @ForbiddenDreamer @Hank_Ikes I still think a paramotor setup would be ideal for me to commute to work, provided it’s not too cold.I have the space to take of and land right out my back door, and there are huge unused parking lots at my work.Its normally a 31 mile drive that takes me 35-40 minutes, but as the crow flies would probably be more like 25 miles.

       @ForbiddenDreamer @anime_outdoor @nugger @Hank_Ikes worst thing can happen is motor quits on ya and assuming you are properly inspecting and maintaining the chute you should be mostly fine

       @Heil_Honkler @anime_outdoor @nugger @Hank_Ikes At minimum, I would get a new chute. If it was improperly stored, the materials could be weakened and you're not going to catch that on inspection without destroying it. And of course, if you're relying on some internet schizo to tell you not to fly with a defective parachute, I really question your ability to do a proper inspection on everything else involved and would prefer that you spend a few thousand more dollars instead of becoming an abstract art piece in some random parking lot under your daily commute.

       @ForbiddenDreamer @Heil_Honkler @nugger @Hank_Ikes chute is definitely not something to cheap out on.That $1,200 was only the motor setup, and it was 125cc while most newer ones are 185cc apparently

       @ForbiddenDreamer @anime_outdoor @nugger @Hank_Ikes Most boomers buy on a whim, fly it once or twice, and lose interest because of the work involved. I wouldn't get a man-mounted one, I'd get a little convertible trike so you aren't beating the hell out of your knees (which you need to baby, every dude seems to have knee problems later on)A while back I posted this company because they named their 2 stroke "black bull" and it's very cringe. But the rest of the gear is nice. You have somewhere to put cargo, have your hands more free, much better

       @WashedOutGundamPilot @ForbiddenDreamer @anime_outdoor @nugger @Hank_Ikes I have looked into getting both styles the trike style does seem more comfortable. But it really would kill it for me as the main appeal of me wanting to get one is to go fly it around in the mountains and you are way more limited on take off landing spots vs foot launching. I have sky dived twice and am an above average sized guy and feel my knees can handle and not be injured from landinds for quiet some time.
