Somedy knows what happened exactly. what were the wind conditions or material failure

@explorateurdesairs

The engine was running during the crash. It appeared to be a stalled flight. Speed was very low. Another pilot did probably not land because of the conditions.

Dell your paramotors might be well built and I don’t doubt your piloting skills. If you keep trying to brainwash people in to believing. “A Flat Top & K2 would have indeed prevented this incident”. You are giving people a false sense of security. A Flat Top is no better than any other paramotor in preventing accidents. The only thing that is going to prevent accidents or even death is proper TRAINING!

please I hope this person is OK !

If you buy a flattop thinking it will not crash, you will probably wind up a cripple. Last year a pilot in a flattop and k2 did the exact same thing and had months of rehab because he listened to the idiot 0308 guy.  The guy in idaho crashed and the idiot 0308 guy laughed all the way to the bank. The only reason flattops that do not crash is because pilots have problems launching them.

When low, always keep the wing flying. You cannot slow down when low, unless your Dell and u know what ur doing. Otherwise, keep that wing flying. When it stalls or spins at low altitude, it's already too late.

@raybeck

Ray, the only thing I would correct is your comment, after spinning the wing he did not let it fly. He needed to let it fly prior to spinning. Once it's in a spin and your at low altitude, it's already too late to recover. When flying low, you always, always, always need to have the wing fly.

lucky he was not flying a flattop, they are so heavy that that it would have probably broken his back.

Pilot stalled left tip, continued to stall the left tip (no recovery as stated) then finally let up on the left control, and buried the right control! Back to the training hill! You can see the wing wanted to fly/recover as it is designed to do, unless you don't let it.

@explorateurdesairs It's called crappy glider syndrome. Pilot asked for a turn, he got a stall/spin.

[raybeck]

I know the guy, he had a broken rib that's all,!

After numerous discussions with him: he didn't want to fly that day but let himself convince by a more experienced pilot: error 1 he flew too low over people, hence tried in turbulent conditions to turn too narrow: too much brake input : error 2 Miniplane Top 80 but with high attachments so chance of applying too much brake : error 3

4) no recovery action: after spinning the wing he did not let it fly : error 4

MORE TRAINING MORE TRAININB!

@imasuper0308 The equipment that a pilot is flying will not prevent pilot error, good training will.

how's the pilot, i hope he's ok
