Many powered parachutes operate around 25 knots. Put one of those in
the pattern with an aircraft with a 100-knot approach speed and you
have a four factor difference. That's the extreme case.
We have two power parachutes based at our home field, and we have no problem
landing with them. They land on the grass and we land on the pavement. I've
done touch and goes with them. We have Lear Jets, powerchutes and everything
in between here with no major hassles. It's just not a big deal because we
all try hard to share the space and play nice.
