Airspace Law Ultralights

The best video to learn about airspace.
If you want to become a paragliding or a paramotor pilot you need to master the understanding of Airspace. For example, because you can have a restricted airspace just next to your flying site. So there is a lot of book explaining the basic but I really think that this video is a fantastic tool to really understand all the detail about airspace in general. And in an attractive 3D demonstration.
(a must for all pilot)

About the Author

Jeff Goin has been flying since age 13, starting with gliders and now as a 737 Captain for a major airline. But when he discovered powered paragliding, everything changed as the sport became a burning passion.

He founded the U.S. Powered Paragliding Association in 2001

He also Wrote the script to their top-selling Risk & Reward video which was produced by Lite Touch Films.

The Powered Paragliding Bible was a result of concern over the lack of a truly comprehensive training manual.

Jeff has been a 3-time USPPA National Champion and placed 6th in the 2009 World Air Games.
