    Can you explain the difference between a powered parachute and a powered paraglider? I thought they are actualy one and the same.
    Also, great website but can you show some pictures of your motor. I was thinking of gong with a Fresh Breeze but now that I have seen your unit, I am glad I have not made the commitment as of yet.

    Not sure if I answered this one as it just popped up. There is a lot of difference between the two types of wings. They are designed for different uses. Even Paragliders have multipurpose wings like Re-Flex Tandem, Free- Flight, XC gliders, Arco, and performance. Each has their own design differences. Powered parachutes have a lot less glide energy and much lower aspect ratios. They are really going obsolete. Look at the companies making canopies for Powered parachute vs. the near 70 companies making paragliders. It’s nice to cut your power and soar in the air vs. sink like a rock. Every wing has it’s market but I believe with new laws and lighter weight aircraft that the PPC wing will go slowly into history as everything does in due time.
    Feel free to a call with detail questions.
    If you’re looking into flying and you do not want to carry a back pack version or you just want the reliability of a four stroke for near the same price then Green Eagle is for you. If you are near a local dealer they will have a wing to recommend that best suits your specific needs. It not we will recommend wings as well.
