I've always felt that the optimal use of the paramotor is to travel to remote locations. This is perfection! Great job with the video.

That sunrise was amazing. Fantastic adventure. One of the last times I went camping it was so cold I didn't get a wink of sleep. That hot coffee looked 11 out of 10.

@MarkHuneycutt 8 месяцев назад

That sounds awful. I was actually pretty cozy with the sleeping bag and Sea to Summit Reactor Extreme Liner. The coffee was so good. Such a luxury and treat when camping

sick video, thanks for being honest about mountain flying at the end, I was wondering if conditions were junk coming back mid-day, I've been tossed around like crazy over those mountains, enough to command respect.

Absolutely. Pretty calm conditions both days luckily

@vonanglin7468 8 месяцев назад

Great video. Avery County airport has changed so much in the last few years. The old timer pilots there used to laugh and make fun of me and say I was crazy for flying paramotors lol

@MarkHuneycutt 8 месяцев назад

Great airport for paramotors!

@willrichter9538 7 месяцев назад

Curious if either of you have any advice for landing at Avery County. Planning to fly in there in a few months and have been told the air is really wonky there.

@vonanglin7468 7 месяцев назад

@@willrichter9538 what are you going to be flying in with? And the air can be weird at times but it's not bad. I never flew my paramotors there but did fly some ultralight in and out and that's where our R/C club flew for years at. What I always found interesting is that the 35 end of the runway is about 50 feet lower than the 17 end. Oh, and don't fly low over the Avery correctional facility/prisons (about a mile South West of the airport). They don't like that lol

@jamest4363 8 месяцев назад

amazing place to camp but I would suggest a camp site lower down in the valley atleast in that area it would be much warmer and much more sheltered from the winds and colder Temps. kinda looks like Yakima valley Washington

@MarkHuneycutt 8 месяцев назад

I like mountaintop camping! If it's windy, sure, I usually find trees or go lower.

@TheJeffsgsxr750 4 дня назад

I work at the mine where you got fuel, how hard is it to do this for someone that has never flown at all?

Best is beautiful boy good on you two. How awesome I don't really see you much so it's great to see your wife then child great blessings Best David Cool mountains nice camping be sure sleeping bag is pre fluffed in dryer with baseballs if needed for loft if it's 23°F a 0deg bag is nice ; ¿so I'm seeing effect of increased weight to fuel economy is that so what is your pack weight 2nd weight of everything less wing ? It be neat to develope a graph for different weight pilots of paramotors and wing width desired just for flight speed and motor size type required something you are familiar with by now at least a bit

@user-kk3oj5um6e Месяц назад

Do you have to communicate with pilots or airports when flying

@gregvence7356 3 месяца назад

That looks flat enough for a trike. What do you think?

@scottcampbell5757 8 месяцев назад

@MarkHuneycutt 8 месяцев назад

Bury it properly. In flight - not a good scenario.

@bricelangston8634 8 месяцев назад

Thank you.... seriously I appreciate the video of Mount Mitchell. Means a lot. Please keep up the great work. Don't know if you take ideas, but cold mountain (35.409411, -82.856149) flyover could be interesting.

@MarkHuneycutt 8 месяцев назад

Definitely. Would have to fly 2,000' AGL over it since it's in Shining Rock Wilderness.

Hey, Mark. I'm a retired Army pilot and I'm new to paramotors - went through training in June. I'm in NC looking for some people to fly with. You located in the mountains? I'm at the coast.

@rule1dontgosplat 8 месяцев назад

dude how do you carry it all? my backpack for cold weather weighs in around 28 pounds

@MarkHuneycutt 8 месяцев назад

I wouldn't doubt it if mine is similar, but I didn't weigh it. I forgot to show a couple things that pack down small enough that I put them in the side and bottom pockets of my paramotor - sleeping bag, sleeping pad, sleeping bag liner, toolkit. I'd actually like oversized bottom pockets for trips like this

@rule1dontgosplat 8 месяцев назад

@@MarkHuneycutt that makes sense then. the tent and sleeping bag are so bulky. i think for an overnight camp and fly i could really cut down on some of the stuff i take backpacking. After i get a lot more flights in i’ll have to look at it. do you camp near the AT at all? one of your trips looked like it was right on the appalachian trail.
