USPPA Does It Right: Fly-Ins are Meant to Be Fun!
This past weekend I had the opportunity to go to Florida and attend the 2014 USPPA Annual Convention and Palm Bay PAL Para Fly-In.
I got to meet Robert Katilla, and through his website VikingPPG.Com he sells some of the neatest new products to hit the PPG market in a while. He makes these cool multicolored polyurethane motor mounts.
One of the coolest displays was put on by Paradrenalin for Nirvana Paramotors. I was thoroughly impressed!!!
I was quick to notice how much attention to detail Nirvana incorporates into their products. You can see it here by how the Instinct fits right into the top of the travel case!
I love how the carbon just “flows” off the Instinct!
The paramotor simulator was a big hit!

Ryan Shaw getting ready to launch. He was off the ground in 10 feet, no joke. Lots of power and 8mph winds

One of my favorite paramotors, the MiniPlane Top80
Soooo many pilots in the air!
Your’s truly trying on the 39lb Air Conception paramotor… All titanium and carbon!

I wanted one of these for the garage but couldn’t find the maker 🙁
