In our pursuit of Aviation in the Power Parachute realm, we made a conscience decision
to sell and support only one manufacturer, Powrachute, the maker of Airwolf and
Pegasus. Powrachute builds these aircraft, and they are Special Light Sport Aircraft (SLSA)
manufactured in Hastings Michigan. The biggest distinction with the SLSA is that the
plane is more like larger general aviation type certified airplanes, such as they are 100%
factory built light aircraft. The regulations put in place in the United States falls under the
FAA, but in Canada it falls under Transport Canada, in many ways the regulations are
similar, but they are not the same. In Canada there are two types of Ultra-Light aircraft:

1. Advanced ultralight aircraft (AULA) (which is like the FAA SLSA requirements).
2. Basic Ultralight Aircraft (BULA).
   The advanced ultralight has more restrictions as far as build and maintenance
   requirements, The Basic Ultralight has less restrictions, and in some ways less
   advantages, but in other ways more advantages for those who like to build and
   maintain their own aircraft.

Why Mention this? “Powrachute” builds the Air Wolf Power Parachute to this level of high
standard in the United States, unfortunately Canada does not recognize this distinction, but just
because Canada does not recognize this does not make it any less important. Again, in Canada
this PPC is registered as BULA, and those rules allows you more freedom to maintain the aircraft.
We feel the Powrachute product is the best Aircraft in its class, built to the highest standards.
In The classification of BULA, we not only find the Power Parachute (PPC) classification, but we
also have Power Paraglider (PPG). Then you can get a Power Paraglider with a trike (PPG), and
some more aircraft of “similar” characteristics, they all have a parachute on top of you and they
fly. Well, PPC and PPG are all under BULA in Canadas classification, but they are not the same.
For example: A jet and a single engine prop plane are similar as far as they are planes, but they
are Not the same. Power Parachute (PPC) sort of falls in the “Slow and Low, Luxury, with a touch
of High Performance” realm. Why is distinction important:
Price Range

• Power Parachute, Powrachute starts at $45k USD up to $75k USD, depending on options
  you want. The Powrachute and most Power Parachutes have aircraft specific engine,
  either a Rotax 582, or Rotax 912 aircraft engines pushing up to 100hp. PPC tend to run
  500 or 550 chutes which tend to cost over $4000.00 USD. PPC have steering controls for
  the wing (chute) operated by your feet. We use one hands to steer the steering arm or
  steering wheel and operate the brake. The other hand is free to operate throttle, and
  instruments, and radio, much like a fixed wing. The PPG on the other hand is less
  expensive and tend to use their hands to reach up to toggles, and operate the chute,
  they also tend to run smaller chutes, elliptical chutes, where we tend to go to square chutes.
• The PPC tends to have a 65 to 100hp Rotax aircraft engines, and a typical PPC
  weighs between 350 lbs and 486 lbs. Max take-off weight can be up to 1186 lbs
  depending on the machine and size of wing (chute).

If you’re thinking of getting into this sport, and you have never flown, we suggest that you try a
discovery flight prior to making the investment. Then you must ask yourself at what cost, well in
my experience quality is not and has not been cheap. Price lists are attached in USD. For further
