Interviews with Phil Dietro

Phil Dietro, Inland Paraflite, Inc
When Sport Pilot was first introduced, one of the privileges that became available in the regulations was the opportunity for powered parachutes to fly over congested or urban areas. Phil Dietro took advantage of that privilege a short while back when he took off from the Torrance Airport in Southern California. He talks about the preparations that he made to do that kind of flight and what it felt like to be cruising above the Los Angeles cityscape in a powered parachute. Inland Paraflite, Inc (9/26/06)

Phil Dietro, Inland Paraflight
Phil Dietro has been instructing in powered parachutes for many years. He talks to us about the origins of the first commercially available powered parachute, the ParaPlane. ParaPlane Corporation was truly an innovative corporation and Phil was able to meet and work with Steve Snyder. Inland Paraflight (3/15/05)
