I've been flying GA aircraft for 14 years and have always wanted to truly fly like a bird. PPG is it! Mo is a very knowledgeable and skilled PPG pilot and instructor. You can see that in his flying and communication skills. I decided to get into PPG after a friend of mine got me interested. I signed up for an introductory flight with Mo and that is all it took. Mo ordered my wing and got me going on ground handling/kiting skills right away. He got me in the air using his electric "Mo-Tow" machine to get a feel for the wing (what a great training tool). He explained the motor unit, how to assemble, how to maintain, what not to do and all the other necessary information. We did a hang test to make sure everything was right with the harness and motor before my solo flight. On my 4th training day, I soloed! I stayed in the air for 30 minutes or more just taking it all in. I must say, there is much more to this sport in terms of knowledge and skill than I first thought. Mo is a great instructor who's dedicated to the utmost in professionalism and fun.
