The Fresh Breeze Airbass is a family of German paramotors that was designed and produced by Fresh Breeze of Wedemark for powered paragliding. Now out of production, when it was available the aircraft was supplied complete and ready-to-fly.[1]
The Airbass was designed to comply with the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles rules as well as European regulations. It features a paraglider-style wing, single-place accommodation and a single 17 hp (13 kW) Solo 210 or 28 hp (21 kW) Hirth F33 engine in pusher configuration with a reduction drive and a 96 to 122 cm (38 to 48 in) diameter two-bladed composite propeller, depending on the model. The fuel tank capacity is 10 litres (2.2 imp gal; 2.6 US gal). The aircraft propeller cage can be folded into four parts and the aircraft rigged with low or high hang points.[1]
As is the case with all paramotors, take-off and landing is accomplished by foot. Inflight steering is accomplished via handles that actuate the canopy brakes, creating roll and yaw.[1]
