He had his paraglider rig in the back of the "Thing" and asked if he could launch from the airport. Since it was a slow day, he wouldn't interfere with any airplanes at the airport....so I said "sure".
After several attempts to crank the "lawn mower" engine....he was airborne. Not for the faint of heart!

That was a great flight. MOM
Wow...definitely crazy...I'd be afraid just of the propeller...definitely like the inside of a lawnmower...we used to see people flying Ultralights in North Dakota...those are pretty scary too...http://affectioknit.blogspot.com/2011/09/ultralight.html
...but I think the parachute ones are probably worse...
Love,
