I look at flying in an ultralight kitewing with an experienced, licensed, certified pilot much as I do SCUBA diving the Blue Hole or bungie jumping or skydiving...these are very risky activities but well worth the risk if you enjoy that sort of adventure. If you don't, well you can always ride in the station wagon (good one AC). To each his own, eh?

wow, i just did this. was amazing. I dont know how many people that can say they know what a cloud feels like. I felt safe the whole time, the pilot was in complete control the whole time. the landing (which was what i was worried about) was the smoothest landing ive been on in any aircraft. Very impressive on all accounts.

From now on call me CloudToucher!

Thanks iluvbelize! That is absolutely correct. To compare our trikes to maya's and tropic air's Cessna aircraft is about the same as comparing a jet ski to a san pedro water taxi. I wouldn't be too stoked on traveling to belize city on a jet ski on regular basis, nor would it be too wise to bust out donuts and jump wakes in the water taxi boat.

We lean more towards the jet ski business. We're about fun: we fly colorful two seat birds in good weather only, and we don't haul luggage. We simply provide the opportunity for tourists to take home some sweet photos and memories of their trip to san pedro and allow residents to see the island from a whole new perspective.

A lot of people of people prefer the big safe water taxi to jammin' around on a jet ski, and I can completely respect that. For them I would suggest chartering a Cessna for an excellent aerial view of the island. Maya or Tropic will happy to arrange that for you, I'm sure. For the those of us who like a little excitement and the sound of wind noise, feel free to give me a call: 632-0701

Thanks a lot for flying with me, AC! I'm glad you had a good time. I certainly had a blast!

I want to fly in South or Central America.

I have 500 TT. CPL, and IFR. Any suggestions for a break into Taca or Copa? Or any airline!

I want to be a pilot professionally!

I guess you might be guessing. But maybe they heard the response.
Most of us are wondering about their credentials, and maybe the credentials and licenses aren't there. And, there are some of us that hate the noise when they fly low over our houses. There is even a thread on "another" message board that the sponser is a faker or a sham. I have wondered and am as happy as hell that they haven' been flying. I hope you get the drift. If there was no problem they would be out and about...but they aren't.

Well, excuse me, but I hope you have read the entire thread...without the hype by the planted supporters, paid or not, (or given free rides). But please, I would never begin to say most of us...without hearing from plenty of locals. But, Jesse, bunches of us (which I will use in the future) don't like the ultra lites, and don't like the supporters that own them...
Does that satisfy you?...and I'm supprised I got knocked off line, must be a coincidence, as soon as I posted this.
