| BLUE SKY POWERCHUTES |
||||||||
| Hello and welcome to my web page.I've been flying powered parachutes since May 2001.It all started with an introductory flight as it does with all PPC pilots but I think my experience was different from most.Here I thought I was going for a "sight seeing" tour ended with me soloing in about an hour after which I took ground school.I never thought it would be that quick and easy.The rest of that summer I practiced my take-offs and landings.Once winter rolled around I was really thinking long and hard about purchasing my own powered parachute.I ended up buying a 2001 Powrachute PC2000 in April of '02 from a dealer that had 13 hours on it.I now have many more hours.Each September since 2002 I travel from Canada down to the Powrachute Extravaganza in Kansas to mingle with other PPC pilots and participate in the world record launch.The last record I flew in was 2003 with 143 planes up in 25 minutes.In '04 and '05 the winds were to strong to even try to go up. I've always had a keen eye for things that are mechanical.I attended a Rotax two stroke engine course in Vernon,British Columbia in April 2006.I've purchased the tools for tearing down the two stroke engines and use only Rotax parts.For more pictures http://www.geocities.com/kevinr88/page2.html I'm authorized by Transport Canada to give instruction on the Powered Parachute.You can contact me: Kevin Ruckle 1-204-752-2056 (home) 1-204-761-2772 (cell) |
