SkyTrails LSA is manufacturing E-LSA & S-LSA aircraft
in a 10,000 sq-ft hangar at the Wharton Airport (Hangars 29-32) in Wharton, TX.
(See attached photo for a bird's-eye view of our showroom/production area and the grass training field just outside our doors.)
SkyTrails has been building PPC’s (Powered Parachutes) along with Training and developing
flight training materials for thepowered parachute industry since December of 1999.
We were consistently one of the leading dealers in sales for Powrachute,
while they were located in Columbus, KS.
On April 22, 2009, SkyTrails LSA (dba: PREDATOR Powered Parachute LLC) purchased the Rights to manufacture
the PREDATOR powered parachute (along with the tooling & inventory) from Hughes Aero. SkyTrails LSA has
also moved into the same hangar facilities that Scott Hughes - the designer of the PREDATOR - had been building the
PREDATOR PPC in, for over the past 4-years. We also - as a courtesy for existing
PREDATOR Clients - retained the existing phone # from Hughes Aero: 979-282-2005.
And we acquired the S-LSA certification for the PREDATOR PPC in November of 2008.
