Not for a while mate, not buying a machine here because I am going back to Canada, and my knee is a bit dodgy for footlaunch, maybe look at a trike or lightweight electric.

The trikes look quite good. Much easier launching.

I read a few reports of the 2 stroke petrol engines sticking flat out at full revs..that's a horrible situation to be in..no doubt the modern stuff have kill switches etc..

Super Del Schanze, the guy who filmed himself chasing and kicking an owl in mid-air and became the most hated paramotorist in america because of it killed a guy in his trike the other week, took someone up to parachute out and it went wrong.

I remember you mentioning his owl incident before mate..I watched a good few of his videos of his..he's a talented pilot but is a bit over the top isn't he..
