Default Para Glider This Morning

While out on bike ride early this morning I saw someone flying a motorized para-glider south of 466A. If anyone knows who this is I would really like to see their equipment and watch them set up for a flight.

I’ve seen them multiple times. Do they live on the landing strip on rolling acres?

It's probably the same guy who flew under the huge power lines close to the dog park on Moyer Loop. He also fly's over Belle Glade CC golf course. I actually called the police when I saw him fly under the power lines. They put me in touch with the FAA. If someone gets a photo of him the FAA will contact him.

He's crazy to go anywhere near those high tension power lines. Those carry huge amounts of electricity.
