Want to truly feel like a bird and fly with the wind rushing by your face? You should try powered paragliding today! Our guest Noah will explain that it is easier and less expensive than you might think. Noah runs the All American Paramotor in Harrah Ok. Welcome to the show Noah Talking Points: What is Paramotoring (Powered Paragliding)? Why is Noah passionate about Paramotors? Noah's aviation background. Do I need a pilot certificate? How about a medical certificate? How much does it cost? Paramotor scholarships. (I only know of ones in the UK.) How long does it take to learn to fly? Weight limits. Are there rules you have to follow? How is the experience, what is it like to fly a paramotor? How is flying a paramotor different from flying an airplane?

There's a particular sound that fills the cockpit when the microphone key is held just a bit too long-a soft hum of shared connection and stories waiting to be told. That's the spirit captured in Stuck Mic AvCast, an ongoing conversation led by Carl Valeri and a seasoned crew of co-hosts including Victoria Neuville, Rick Felty, and Eric Crump. This isn't a sterile technical lecture, but a hangar-floor chat that spans the entire journey from that first spark of curiosity to a lifetime spent in the air. You'll hear from pilots like Tom Frick, Russ Roslewski, and Larry Overstreet as they dig into the real-world nuances of training, the unexpected challenges of cross-country flights, and the simple, enduring joy that keeps them returning to the runway. Each episode feels like pulling up a chair among friends who get it, discussing everything from gear and regulations to the philosophy of flight itself. Tune in for a podcast that celebrates every facet of aviation, where the passion is as clear as a controller's instruction and the stories are as varied as the skies above.
