Paraborne started off as the US distributor for the Goodwin Buckshot wheeled powered parachute design and the Daiichi Kosho Company's foot-launched Beat and Whisper paramotors. When Daiichi Kosho ceased production Alan designed his own derivative aircraft, the Paraborne Backplane, but it was not a commercial success and Paraborne ceased produced and went out of business in about 2004.[1][2][3]
