hahaha, well when i was about 12 years old, i was allowed to pull the wing on the little airstrip right next to my house here in Thailand ... i dare to say I must be a "world champion in ground handling"! - that was all i could do for an hours, every single day, for more than one year time period, LOL ... when i was 13 i had my first direct drive solo and 3 more short 20min flights to figure out what only would be the "Love of my Life" and a possible carrier ... i had been guided and trained by the owner of Fly Castelucco and his famous pilot friend Michele Francis, as it was them who first brought this new sport to Thailand. Then the first paramotor enthusiastic and pioneer pilot, Mr. Bamroong Ruamsup, along with Mr. Michele Francis have established here the first official flying club, where they made me to be their the only true "test pilot" ... they've made me to fly just with anything we were able to find on our "poor and cheap" market, mostly some factory's "non-success prototypes", some extremely "tired-old" crap what nobody else was willing to even touch, etc., ... well it was a lot of fun but a "high school" as well ... this time was not any PPG wing "born yet", so most "normal" flights were with PG wings and i have tried them all (Perche Sonic & DHV, Apco, Paratech, Elle, MacPara, Edel, Power Play - Sting, Gin, etc.,..) since about 4 years ago we finally could have much better fun and experiences with new real and exciting PPG wings from Silex, ITV, UP, MacPara and GIN, also some cheap and not really bad wings from Poland and Russia ... as soon as i got 18years old, i have established my own "BMG paramotor TEAM" and registered the First Paramotor Club - Center&School in Thailand, obtained my pilot&instructor license and started to manufacture our own custom made paramotors engines and units, providing also the maintenance services, inspection etc., designed and produce our own modified harnesses, propellers, etc., ... local DOA have made me to issue the Training manuals books for the Pilot instructors and Students, we have been helping to set up the traffic rules and many competitions. BMGteam has got now about 70 registered members from Thailand and worldwide, used to win most of local competitions, being a fair leader of this sport in the Kingdom ... i myself have more than 1.700 flight hours, about 3.000 flights already and still looking keenly forward to every single next one to take off ... as this extreme brilliant sport is still too "young" here in Kingdom of Thailand, i would very love to obtain some qualification and experiences from and through USPPA, to be able to compete in within USA, learn and share much much more ... thank you and blue skies
