Paramotors typically fly around 60-80 miles on a single tank of fuel which can take about 2 hours. With a larger fuel tank we were able to fly than 100-120 miles per flight without TailWind Consideration. We expected to cover 200-300 miles per day, and ultimately averaged 265 miles per day.
- Best Distance in a Day: 384.1 miles (day 3)
- Least Distance in a Day: 175.9 (day 2 – 2 flights)
- Average Distance per Day: 265 miles
Our planning map below includes Fuel Stops, Checkpoints and alternative airports to land.
