Phoenix Gleitschirmantriebe (Phoenix Paragliding Drives) was a German aircraft manufacturer based in Würselen. The company specialized in the design and manufacture of paramotors in the form of ready-to-fly aircraft for the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles rules and for the European Fédération Aéronautique Internationale microlight category.^[1]

The company seems to have been founded in the early 2000s and gone out of business about 2008.^[1][2]

The company produced the Phoenix Skywalker line of paramotors, powered by the 18 hp (13 kW) Solo 210 and the 22 hp (16 kW) Hirth F-33 engines. The aircraft was noted for the use of a paddle-bladed 86 cm (34 in) diameter four-bladed composite propeller, which allowed the design of a smaller cage assembly which improved ground transport portability and handling on take-off and landing.^[1]
