Be Your Own Pilot
Paramotors are one of the easiest and cheapest ways to enter the world of aviation! Footlaunch units are compact and lightweight. Most footlaunch units can be broken down and transported in the back seat of a sedan or SUV. Trikes are typically transported in trailers or in the bed of a pickup truck but a few can be broken down to fit in back of a large suv.
