people flying around with gliders, copter cameras etc are a violation of our rights to privacy, but the people using them get away with it because our lawmakers have no gonads or brains to pair with them.

some people who use all these flying apparatus snicker to themselves how they get to peep at everyone and girls and women.

stupid!

wanna go do it, do it im america

and i have seen a documentary on how lethal and dangerous such flying manned devices are, and watched one with a family crash into the ocean and almost drown on it while strapped in.

Operators of these Paramotors don’t generally carry any form of civil aviation comms or nav equipment (radios or transponders). How would you suggest communicating with them when they’re in breach of controlled airspace? Flags? Semaphores?

Bermuda is currently a Class D airspace – meaning there is a cleared radius of 5 nautical miles around the centre of the operational airfield. Changes to this are being considered according to this:

“2015. February 13. Bermuda’s modernization of its air traffic management will allow the Island to become a certified air navigation service provider, Transport Minister Shawn Crockwell told Members of Parliament this morning upon resumption at the House of Assembly. “Significant costs” involved in the process will be recouped in user charges, Mr Crockwell added. The Island’s certification as a provider would allow Bermuda to expand its area of airspace for air traffic management from the existing five-mile radius, out to as much as 50 miles — and potentially farther “at a much later stage”, Mr Crockwell said. Expanded operations should be in place to support “the anticipated increase in flight operations surrounding the upcoming America’s Cup”. The updates came as the Transport Minister rose to inform the House of his London visit in December, accompanied by local aviation officials, to present the findings of the Bermuda Approach Control and Airspace Modernization Feasibility Survey.”
Flight is a serious matter. These are not toys. There are a host of safety considerations that need to be taken into account before making a decision on legalisation of this ‘activity’.

Have a bit of cop-on here. Just because you have the means to indulge doesn’t automatically give you the right to.

Paramotors takeoff wind speed limit is 25KPH…AC45′s are capable of traveling approx twice the wind speed which would let them travel 50KPH at safe operating speeds for Paramotors…GO HOME Toodle-oo, you’re a hater.

I bet that a lot of commercial pilots regard them as the cockroaches of the sky when in the wrong hands. Just like knowledgeable boaters regard jet skis .

Do you remember when there was a guy who did helicopter charters about 23 years ago ? As soon as he started there was an uproar about the constant noise and threats to people’s privacy as they lounged in their back yards or around the pool.
A couple of these things are going to quickly raise the same ire.

And all of those wonderful things that you suggested ought to be done require people with money willing to take a chance , where are they ?
Or are you suggesting that government does it ?

Other than noise these things are hardly a threat to anything but the birds. Don’t think anyone would attempt flying it close to any runway approach path.

Wait for it. Something else for the powers that be to say “NO” to.
