The Ozone Team in Qatar

In December 2014 the Ozone PPG Team (& friends) traveled to Qatar to fly together during a seven day event. The Ozone pilots were graciously invited by the Qatar Air Sport Committee to perform a paramotor and acro paragliding show during Qatar National Day. Emilia Plak and Hany Shaker organized the visit, which resulted in an inspiring knowledge exchange between local and visiting pilots. The Ozone Team expected a bit of fun PPG flying in the desert, but were surprised by perfectly soarable dunes, playing together with off-road vehicles, some D-bag action and even a gyrocopter. Thanks to the Qatar Air Sport Committee for their hospitality, the fun flying, and some new friends.
