Paramotor

A paramotor is a device that combines a lightweight aircraft wing, similar to a parachute, with a portable motor and propeller worn on the pilot’s back. It allows a person to take off from level ground, fly through the air, and land safely. The motor provides thrust, giving pilots control over altitude and direction. Paramotoring is a form of powered paragliding that offers a relatively accessible way to experience flight, requiring training for safety, and is popular for recreation, aerial photography, and sightseeing.
