Is the PPG a “Paramotor”?
A. “Paramotor” is another generic term for powered paraglider. However, the word “Paramotor” has been trademarked in the U.S. by Paramotor, Inc., of New York, a manufacturer of well made but heavy, expensive powered paragliders of rather dated design (a powered paragliding industry group is currently challenging the validity of the trademark issuance).
