  1. Unfortunately, inexperienced Powered Parachute pilots, particularly those who have no experience in flying with a passenger, fail to realize that air temperature as well as payload & wind direction, directly affect lift & take off distance. Opening the throttle & hoping for the best, does not work. I owned a Dream Machine for years and with two adult males, needed takeoff directly into the wind and a much longer than normal, takeoff roll.
