| The original FAI bid proposed the idea of *electric paramotors*. If this can't be done then it won't stop us doing what we always do, but if it can, then it could be a tremendously good thing, but it relies on finding some way of funding it. Since pilots in these games must be selected from the best of 'the best' not 'the richest' then the only sensible solution must be to find a sponsor who can fund c.20 power units for loan to competitors in the event. |
| It is not unreasonable to think this might be possible; we know we can do interesting and attractive things in paramotor competitions, there are no performance disadvantages in the sort of short tasks we would be doing, eco stuff is very topical, and an electric competition would be a 'first' in any airsport. This all combines to have every potential to be something really interesting to the media and hence a decent sponsor. |
| Starting from summer 2014 we have three years to do it - a reasonable amount of time, but *it is your job to get to work on this now.* |
