Just Wanna Fly

I grew up in a very small town in Nevada, around amazing people, farm fields and animals. I then played sports, took photography classes and graduated with honors in both high school and college.  ​ And now you might ask? ​ I am that small town girl living her biggest dreams! Aside from jumping out of planes for joy, I also love to hike, camp, swim, ski, travel and shoot photography every step along the way!!  Here's some fun facts about me:  I picked up a camera 10 years ago and never let go I've been a professional photographer for 2 years. I know its crazy but I like Ketchup on my Mac n Cheese. I live 2,846 Miles from my closest relative BUT I adore long calls back home I have796 skydives... and counting! My biggest pet peeve is being sticky..... sticky=icky! My comfort food is any thing with cheese or bacon! YUM.  I'm 23 and thriving! I have met the love of my life, Joshua. I've traveled to 3 countries and I'm always looking for an adventure!  I'm a goofball with a full heart  Checkout www.Tomahawktees.com for some flying apparel

Ghada grew up in Egypt in an aviation family. Her father was a flight instructor (and orthopedic surgeon) and flew a variety of aircraft. Her earliest childhood memories involve sailplanes, small single-engine aircrafts, hot air balloons, and parasailing. Ultralight have always been her favorite.  After seeing her first paramotor on a beach in Florida, Ghada began a search for more information on the sport. Her search led her to Paramotor Orlando and Paramotor Academy where she began her training with Eric Dufour and Jonathan Carr in June of 2021. She continues to work closely with the team of instructors including John McCurley and Marco Busse to improve and learn additional skills. She is always joined on the field by her 8-year-old son, Zane, who has shown early interest in flying and has been learning by safely observing and participating when appropriate. Ghada has been primarily flying an Air Conception Nitro 200 with an Everest Cross 21 meter on a Skykart quad designed by Eric Dufour and nicknamed "Little Red Flaming Fire" by Zane. She is currently working on foot launching and practicing for tandem flights on wheels along with the appropriate USPPA ratings. While she finds paramotoring to be one of the most enjoyable forms of flying, she plans to continue exploring and pursuing her goal to fly everything.  When not in the air, Ghada is an instructor in the College of Business at the University of Central Florida where she teaches Project Management to undergraduate students.  #Girlswhofly #Girlsjustwannafly #Egypt #Florida #Wisconsin #Skykart #EricDufour #Nitro200 #EverestCross #Paramotor #ParamotorOrlando #NorthernlightsParamotor #ParamotorPilot #Momswhofly

My name is Misty Hannah, I’m a wife and mother of four girls. I live in Rochester, Illinois. My love for aviation began early in my life. My dad is a private pilot, he got his license when he was 17 so I’ve been flying with him my whole life. I’ve always wanted to get my pilots license but life choices early on delayed it for me. I was married young and had kids so I never had the time or extra money. Now that we just have one daughter at home who is graduating this year, we have to extra money for me to pursue my dream of becoming a pilot.  #GirlsJustWannaFly #ParamotorGirl.com #SpringfieldIllinoisAirport #RochesterIllinois #Momswhofly #Girlswhofly #Airplanes #AviaitonStudent

I work at a top rated blonding specialty salon in KCMO. I’m a foil specialist and I love doing balayage. I have recently learned that my running days are over due to a back injury that I have had for a number of years. The only way to fix it is surgery which will involve rods and screws to fuse my L5 back into place. This did not happen Skydiving it is mostly genetic. I am a recovering alcoholic and I will have 10 year sobriety on April 10! I live in Sibley Missouri and I jump most often at Falcon Skydiving in Kansas City Missouri
