Starting up at Parabatix in Dubai
“In our overly guarded world it’s increasingly popular to see ‘Caution’ or ‘Danger’ signs on everyday products. ‘Don’t dry your cat in the microwave,’ ‘Don’t eat the iPod Shuffle,’ etc. The strange thing is, we don’t see these labels on a paramotor.”
Dean Eldridge, author of Paramotoring: The Essential Guide, has been a regular columnist in Paramotor Magazine and now in Cross Country for several years. His advice is always practical and easy to understand.
In issue 157 (Jan/Feb 2015) he tackles the issue of starting your motor on the ground, something some pilots say you should never do for safety reasons.
Deano looks at the issue from all angles, and explains why you might need to, and how you should go about it to ensure a smooth and safe start every time.
