Paramotor (动力伞) 源自英文
Paragliding(滑翔伞)和motor(摩托)。顾名思义,动力伞是在滑翔伞上加配了动力装置。1978年,动力伞,法国登山家贝登先生成明了滑翔伞,使人类翱翔蓝天的梦想得以实现。然而,人们在欢喜之余发现,滑翔伞的飞翔与梦想中的自由飞翔仍有距离,**主要的一点就是不能在平地自由起降,起飞受山坡条件的制约,更使没有山峰地区的飞行爱好者感到难受。1984年,一群充满浪漫与幻想的法国滑翔伞爱好者,给滑翔伞加挂了一个小型发动机,利用发动机带动螺旋桨的推力和滑翔伞伞翼的升力,使平地“自由起降”不再成为问题,达到了自己飞得更高、更远,留空时间更长的目的,从而创立了这项新兴的航空体育项目。

Regulations
In most countries, paramotor pilots operate
under simple rules that spare them certification requirements for pilot and
gear. Those laws, however, limit where they can fly—specifying that pilots
avoid congested areas and larger airports to minimize risk to other people or
aircraft. U.S. pilots operate under Federal Aviation Administration regulation
Part 103.
Associations
In the U.S., the sport is represented
primarily by the US Powered Paragliding Association (USPPA)[note 1] which also
holds an exemption allowing two-place training by appropriately certified
tandem instructors. The US Ultralight Association (USUA) and Aero Sports
Connections (ASC) also offer some support.
Instructors in the U.S. are primarily
represented and certified by the United States Powered Paragliding
Association(USPPA). Other organizations include the Professional Association of
Powered Paragliding Instructors (***PI).
Safety and regulations
Research estimates that the activity is
slightly safer (per event) than riding motorcycles and more dangerous than
riding in cars.[3] The most likely cause of serious injury is body contact with
a spinning propeller. The next most likely cause of injury is flying into
something other than the landing zone.[4] Some pilots carry a reserve parachute
designed to open in as little as 50 ft (15 m).
The lack of established design criteria for
these aircraft led the British Air Accidents Investigation Branch to conclude
in 2007 that "Only when precise reserve factors have been established for
individual harness/wing combinations carrying realistic suspended masses, at
load factors appropriate to the maneuvers to be carried out, can these aircraft
be considered to be structurally safe"[5]
The larger the pilot, the larger the size
of the wing and thrust required to launch. Most individuals in reasonably good
health can foot-launch a paramotor and there are even pilots with artificial
joints foot launching. Individuals that may have issues with the physical
aspect of foot launching may opt to add a trike or quad to their paramotor. A
trike or quad is a platform to which the paramotor can be attached so it can be
launched from wheels like a regular aircraft or powered parachute.
The paramotor, weighing from 45 to 90 lb
(20 to 41 kg) is supported by the pilot during takeoff. After a brief run
(typically 10 ft (3.0 m)) the wing lifts the motor and its harnessed pilot off
the ground. After takeoff, the pilot gets into the seat and sits suspended
beneath the inflated paraglider wing like a pendulum. Control is available
using brake toggles for roll and a hand-held throttle for pitch.
Military
Powered paragliding has seen a large growth
in the military including insertion of special forces soldiers and also Border
Patrol in many governments. The Lebanese Airborne regiment adopted this
technique in 2008, and the US Army, and Egyptian Army have used Paramotor Inc
FX Series units for many years.
三星重工实际上已拿下了1万亿韩元规模的大型钻探用海洋成套设备生产设备订单。 10月16日(韩国时间),挪威海洋领域专刊《UPSTREAM》报道称,三星重工事实上已经确定了参与墨西哥湾“Mad Dog 2项目”的英国石油公司(BP)招标的半潜式原油生产设备(Semi-FPU)的订单。据悉,在本次投标会上虽然包括现代重工、大宇造船海洋等的韩国大型造船企业,以及来自新加坡、中国的企业参与竞争,但三星重工成为**终的胜利者。据悉合同金额为1万亿韩元,**终合同有望在明年年初签署。 三星重工在本月12日拿下了挪威维肯公司招标的4艘油轮、合同金额2.2亿美元(约2400亿韩元)的订单。9月末,还与欧洲...
