My Last Solo Cross Country Flight For My Private Pilot’s License!
My last solo cross country needed before I can apply for my checkride with a DPE. I feel great today! Crosswind landings could have been more on the centerline, but I’ll get there with more practice. Awesome!

Paramotor Engine Outs and Forced Landings - Vittorazi, EOS, Polini and Rotax - Nobody is Immune.
Просмотров 16 тыс.5 месяцев назад
Here are three engine outs and three recent forced landings. Statistically, I have experienced an engine out or forced landing about 2% of the time. Are you ready for an engine out or forced landing? Do you keep a landing site in range at all times? Are you ready to hike? Do you carry a first aid kit with the proper gear to treat more serious injuries?

    Awesome video, every OEM should be thankful to get real customer feedback. Every negative is an opportunity to make a positive. You can tell a company is trying to do its best when you see it reply with ( We are sorry to hear you are having issues with our product and would like to try and make it right) We all know it is not always possible to make every customer happy, but not to try is a bad sign. Thank you for the detailed review and for taking the time to post. Looks like an awesome sport. I don't know if anyone is doing this in my area. Aloha!

You likely know nothing about me, how I preflight, why I test-fly so many engines, the circumstances or how I do anything to safely mitigate risk. 2. I hope an engine out does not happen to you, but if you fly enough it probably will, and multiple times. Especially if you try out and test-fly multiple machines like I do. Safe skies to you my friend.
