Welcome to the world’s leading manufacturer of
Powered Parachutes.
Founded in 1999 as Powrachute Corporation,
Powrachute continues to set the pace
for the industry and expand the scope of powered
parachutes. Now an industry
leader with unmatched name recognition, Powrachute
completed Light Sport
certification for all our two place models. Over its
rich history, Powrachute has
delivered more than 1500 aircraft to our customers
around the world.
With forward thinking in advanced concepts,
Powrachute continues to create new
advances to make the sport of powered parachutes the
safest form of flight. These
unique aircraft fly with a ram air wing similar to
sky diving wings. You fly like an
airplane taking off and landing in very short
distances. You simply steer right and left
with your foot controls and up and down with power
setting. This is simply the
easiest form of flight on the planet.
Headquartered in Hastings, Michigan, Powrachute
continues to provide every
customer with the highest quality products, service
and support second to none
