Any of you guys owners of powered parachutes?

I'd love to buy one and almost did a couple of years ago when I went through my tech school training at Sheppard AFB. It was the kind with wheels (trike). I wished I would have bought then because the cost was less than 5k. Now it is over 6k and the rig I really want (foot launch) is over 8k.

Just seeing what is out there...

First,,,try a sheet off the garage roof. Then make up your mind.

I'am with Sparkie try the roof first may the dog house as it lower then make up your mind

Nah, a ram air chute would not have the same lifting effect as a sheet LOL. I just live in a great area to participate in that sport. Down around Destin you see them all of the time flying up and down the beach.

ROTFLMAO, sorry AAV I like you and agree with you on almost everything you post. But holy sh*t that is funny. Your pic does look like that guy from the movie.

[sparkie]

2 nude beaches in San Diego,,,,,, Black's is well known, but Moon Beach at Sunset Cliffs is hotter. This beach is carved out under the cliffs. Very, very private. Gotta be a goat to get there. Beer has gotta come down on a rope.

Beautiful.

Bulkyker,,,, know that one? Home of the submarine races?

I never went to blacks because I heard it was mostly middle aged men that went there.
