Paul Hamilton provides a discovery/intro flight in a weight-shiftcontrol trike to a student with all the basics of a first lesson. Part 1 is startup, familiarization with the controls, taxi, takeoff, transfer of controls, and climb out.
Paul Hamilton shows his design of electric heating for cold weather flying. He shows the clothing he uses, how the trike is set up for electric heating, and how to run the numbers to decide what you can use for your ultralight, trike, open air airplane, microlight weight-shiftcontrol.
Complete individual wing control allows crazy aerobatics like back flips and dives, previously not possible with mechanical birds!

Two WeightShift Trikes, Two Sea Doos, Lake Superior, and a bunch of guys in the middle of summer having a great time in the air and on the water. A great documentary of a Sea-Doo/Airborne trip.
