About Anthony Vella:
After being medically evacuated out of the combat zone in Afghanistan, Anthony’s plans on becoming a pilot in the Army went up in smoke. After several medical procedures and years of physical therapy, he worked to get into the best physical shape possible. In spite of regaining his strength, he continued his search for an overall balance that’d been disturbed from his experiences in war.
He’d discovered paramotoring as a child when a lone pilot flew over the farm that he worked at. The memory of the peculiar flying machine reemerged with timing that he describes as “divine intervention”. On the 7th anniversary of sustaining his life altering injuries, Anthony began his training to fly paramotors. He went on to state in the interview that, “for me, the therapeutic qualities of flight have exceeded the remedies of modern day medicine.”
When he isn’t flying or creating new PPG content, Anthony dedicates his time to his children, Leo (7) and Mia (4), and his girlfriend, Leandra.
