above 15 mph can be considered dangerous for a PPC.
Do not fly in rain or snow, or when conditions could turn rainy or snowy.
Never fly if you are impaired by alcohol or medications.
Do not fly if you have any medical conditions which could cause you to black out or lose
control of the aircraft in any way.
Always fly from a field that is of sufficient length and free of obstructions.
Always take off and land directly into the wind. NEVER take off or land with the wind.
You should never attempt to operate your powered parachute without proper training.
Use of helmets is always recommended.
Your PPC should always be operated within the legal boundaries set up by the FAA for
these types of crafts. This means you must be a licensed pilot and have your craft legally
registered with the FAA and carry an airworthiness card and limitations.
You may, under no circumstances, carry a passenger with a student pilot certificate.
Never overload your craft or exceed the manufacturers recommended gross weight limit.
Your craft must be carefully inspected before each and every flight.
Always warm your engine up to operating temperature before flying.
Always wear lap and shoulder belts.
NEVER fly your aircraft if you know of a problem or suspect there to be one.
Always fly in a safe manner, and never fly over anything that you wouldn’t want to land
on!
