The minister of transport is obligated to change the regulation immediately!
 We have been made aware of this case in December 2014:  The transport Canada office is CAUGHT Shamefully hiding all information , Not publishing in nothing about The death of Barry Kleiter on the 7th of June 2012 in a field near Enderby BC  .  Because The victim was taking radio instructions from ,the only so called CERTIFIED BY TRANSPORT CANADA  "UltralightAirplane/ Powered Parachute instructor" in BC ,  Making it a 100% failure rate for all "Transport Canada instructors" in BC.  We request the immediate publication of this accident report in "Accident Synopses" in the transport Canada website with all details, including the fact that the victim was under radio instruction from the PILOT in COMMAND, a so called "TRANSPORT CANADA  INSTRUCTOR" teaching with UNREGISTERED equipment!  The Minister of transport of Canada, the honourable  Lisa Raitt , is now obligated to order the transport Canada office   to publish this report immediately . The publishing of this report is mandatory to help prevent an accident like that to happen again. Not publishing it is not an option now. Insisting in not publishing this report is wanting more students pilot to die. The publishing of this report will demonstrate the complete failure of the current program.   Lisa Raitt is now obligated to end the current program.

    

 

 

 

 

 

We are expecting an announcement from the minister  Lisa Raitt any days now

 

 

We request : the end of the mandatory Airplane pilot permit immediately! for paramotors or anything under 100 pounds , Not capable of more than 55 knots(101 kmh) calibrated airspeed at full power in level flight , to match 40% of the regulations in the USA (in the USA its anything under 254 pounds!)

 

 

 

 

 

 

15 april 2015 update. 

 

 

                                                                                                                                        

 

 

 

 

 

 

      

 

 

 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

 

 

 

 

The victim spiralled down from a height of about 1000 feet !(300m) . Reserve parachutes takes about 200 feet to open. Those pictures of Mr. Kleiter training during the week before his death, are screen-shots from a video posted online by the infamous Transport Canada instructor, and show's no reserve. CPPGA is not advocating for the mandatory use of reserves to all PPG pilot all the time and everywhere, but in this case there was no reason for mr. Kleiter not to have one, flying in a trike, in mountain air.     we are not going after the instructor.  We are only ordering the transport Canada office to publish the report so people can learn from it , so to prevent it to happen again.   

                 

 

 

 

 

CBC Saskatchewan, but not in CBC  British Columbia??

 

 Nothing in 2012 !

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The transport Canada office as no excuses to not publish this report as we are showing all the information here.  transport Canada offices and the minister of transport are also receiving       a daily CPPGA update. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Moments after we publish this accident report(without the IPB bellow) and

email a CPPGA update to the Transport Canada Ottawa office , on the 15 of

December 2014 , They get CAUGHT deleting this "Internal Process Bulletin"  from the website.  The timing of this action is proof of this "INTERNAL PROCESS BULLETIN" is

directly related to this case. An attempt to cover-up this accident.

(we only have 2 iphone pictures of the monitor, taken

on the 14 of December, ) This is very disturbing to see this SHADY secretive subculture in Transport Canada offices , plotting to misinform the public.  We request national medias to help us investigate and publish this.  Also we are asking any witness of the accident to please contact us, and also we would like to speak with

the family of mr Kleiter .

3 weeks after the death of Mr Kleiter ,  the so called "Chief-Aviation Contingency Operations, National

Operations in Ottawa,  Anyk Bertrand" rush those, quote: "IMMEDIATE CHANGES" "For the

purpose of: the termination of reporting certain type of incident" ""incident with

potential for Media Attention"!  To late Anyk, this accident happened BEFORE July 3th. and at 9:45am on Thursday ,So a written report is require,  the email:  anyk.bertrand@tc.gc.ca   as been deleted.

 Let say Mr Kleiter died after July 3 , after regular business hours, like 4:05pm ,  then no written report.. 

the  duty officer do a verbal report to the "regional director civil aviation"or RCDA of the Pacific region, 

the same person that had previously delivered the instructor licence to the unqualified instructor in this case. So it ends

there, no report in the Accident Synopses,  Because it would make them look very very bad,

Showing a 100% failure of  all TC instructors in BC!  

 

 

The transport Canada office is CAUGHT again! After been pressure by the minister, They send us the link to where we can find the report of this accident! they had hidden it in a un-findable "Cadors report", while changing it to a "Hang-Glider Crash" !  This confirm that what we are saying is 100% true.

Here is the link to find it !  really! you have to type that to find it! or someone send you this link.    The transport Canada office is also CAUGHT contradicting the RCMP report!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Danger! Do NOT take powered paragliding lesson from a so call "tranport Canada instructor" as most of them are Not skilled pilot or have never even fly one ever!! Really!!      Here is the proof : The Szar of PPG in Canada, Martin Buisoneau wrote in the TC website: quote: "under the supervision of the holder of a flight instructor rating-ultra-light-aeroplane or aeroplane" Meaning an Airplane instructor with Zero experience flying a paramotor is an approved by transport Canada instructor to teach you how to fly a paramotor in Canada!   Martin Buisoneau you`re Fired !

 

 

 

 

                                      is this a car?   only an idiot would say:

"Yes it as wheels and a motor!  so you need a driver permit,

license plate, registration, insurance, and liability insurance "      

                   

   is this an airplane? NO ! only an idiot would say:"Yes it as a motor and it fly's,

   so you need an airplane pilot permit, license plate, registration, insurance and liability insurance" .  It is also important to say that because of the difference in the possible consequence of a bus hitting a powered wheeled scooter and a jet liner hitting a powered paraglider ,  special care must be taken by Powered paragliding instructors to teach their students how to stay out of the way of airplanes of course.

 

                        

                                                                                                       

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

   Lisa , just ask Anthony to forward you the U.S regulations (even if we already have send them to you)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                                                                                                  

 

 

 

 

 

 

                             

 

 

 

 

 

 

       

 

 

               

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                      

To had to the insult ! New transport Canada regulations for drones!

Anyone over 16 years of age can fly a remote control toy as heavy as 77 pounds!

without any kind of permit! That's heavier than a paramotor, and the operators takes ZERO risk for themselves , so way more likely to do something stupid, so more risk for others. Beware of those things while flying your paramotor !

"Canadian Powered Paragliding Association" is Calling out Now All Powered-paraglider pilots and paraglider pilots wanting to try the same glider they already fly with a motor , that believe the current regulations imposed by transport Canada office is Totally 100%Wrong  The course and exams called "Ground School" for "Ultralight Airplane" do Not apply for a powered paraglider at all, Not launching from an Airport! (view pictures from the book, click here). 

We know that the same type of regulation as the in the USA is the only way to go! So we can welcome pilots from there and other country's. so we can organize races and fly-ins, and make it easier for new pilots to get into this great sport. and setting a guideline  for instructors that wants to join our group voluntarily. The Wonderful sport of Powered Paragliding is currently Highjacked in Canada by a few Greedy Airplane instructors (most of them do not even fly ppg! they hate it!), with their airplane course that can only STRONGLY DECREASE SAFETY for powered paragliding students by teaching them the wrong subject for 20 Hours before even talking to him/her about paragliding! Yes 20 Hours of Airplane and Airports course!! it's a fraud and its dangerous.  Even the most experience airplane pilot do not have a clue how to fly a powered paraglider. it is something different on is own, and it as nothing to do with transportation!! it is a sport! only to fly at specific locations with specific conditions. Powered Paragliding is Paragliding, nothing to do with airplanes!    Because of the nature of this SPORT and  the risk involve it is very important that you  learn to fly from a very experienced and very skilled  PPG pilot only! Request to see lots of videos of the instructor Himself flying a paramotor not an airplane before signing up for lessons.

                                                                                                                                        Our extremely reasonable proposition to the Transport Canada office and the is:

To END the requirement of a mandatory airplane license immediately, for anything under 100 pounds,  Not taking-off or landing at an airport, Not capable of more than 55 knots calibrated airspeed at full power in level flight. (In USA it's anything under254 pounds!!)

So please join us! Sorry for the moment we are not accepting members that have a Instructor Rating Ultra-Light/powered parachute permit emitted by the transport Canada office(unless you`re willing to give up your nonsense permit and want to join us, and you have videos to proof your skills than contact us)  But any paraglider pilot are welcome, or anyone just wanting to get into the sport.
