Ah yes it's beautiful ... but it must be a big deal if the wind picks up ... and the logistics are "heavy"!
And the orange "oars" are just a joke, eh: no real propulsion effect!

In addition helium becomes increasingly rare on Earth ... me if I do it is hydrogen! Much more green :)

You knew that inflatable balloons (not to be confused with hot-air balloons) and single or double-sided airships were officially considered microlights in France, and this for years!

This is the 5 class: The ultralight balloon (5 class)

(Ahahaha the paramotor is first! :) )

Thin, hydrogen is not approved in ULM:

· The volume of the helium envelope is less than or equal to 900 m3.

· The volume of the hot air envelope is less than or equal to 2000 m3.

It's not paragliding parachutism paracommando, opening the emergency to uh ... 5 m ground?

Collision in flight ... not good ...

The video seems odd to me anyway ... can be a fake?

I do not think that's wrong: I have unfortunately already seen 2 parachutists hang in the air with a parachute flare of one of them. He triggered his emergency parachute about thirty meters high, but he did not have time to open!

Yes it is possible: but I find the deceleration at the opening very brutal on the video ...

After having muscled the arms with the aéroplume, as well make the calves with the flying bicycle:

Do not flinch! :)

But was not there already a pedal plane that crossed the English Channel a few years ago?

A Colombian pilot passes ... between a line THT ... or he brushed it? We do not see well .. But the cables are very very close! : Shock:

May not be directly related to yesterday's attacks: http://www.wort.lu/fr/international/le- ... ff8fa74ed2

I know that when one is motorized, it is necessary to file a flight plan if one crosses a border (many do not do it, in particular in microlight pendulum and paramotor ...) ... in free flight I do not believe (except if the state of emergency changes this point ???)

Here is it we should have stopped (to stay in the news): http://www.20minutes.fr/monde/daesh/171 ... aesh-syrie

(the pilot still has a little pain in his arm, at the end of the video!)


other videos on their site: http://aeroplume.fr/category/videos-aeroplume/



the aeroplume can only be used in a closed hangar, or outside only on days where the wind is zero

I participated in the development of a larger airship, based on the electroplume that was used by Nicolas Hulot, which proved too weak with its original engine, the slightest wind l took away, and the batteries were empty before they could do the right thing

it was equipped with 2 paragliding engine, and it started to become fun

it became http://www.a-nse.com/fr/portfolio-item/n400/

but it is not really an economical machine: no envellope is perfectly waterproof: it is necessary to regularly deliver helium and it is ruinous

it would be a little less bad with hydrogen but no aircraft hangar accepts a machine filled with hydrogen ... and hangars are the only places easy to find to house this kind of gear

the big section of the envelope that it consumes a lot of energy to move forward, much more than any plane ... the only advantage is to be able to hover stationary in silence

any movement with this type of vehicle must be done with a vehicle on the ground that follows, with a mat lift on the vehicle to tie the nose of the airship and fix it to the ground: it is not dropped helium to go down: it is the engine that is orientaable to go up or down ... it remains roughly balanced with the pilot ... if the pilot goes down without adding sandbag the thing would fly alone

can we imagine to deflate by recompressing gas in bottles ... it would require 3 ton of bottle for a machine that only steals a person ... and I do not speak of the power of the compressor
