3 steps to the freedom of flight.

Step 1: Ground school and wing ground handling practice without the motor.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 2: Towing and Tandem rides allow the student to become comfortable with his/her paraglider before taking their first motor flight.  Tandems allow the pilot to experience the motor and wing experience.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 3: Consists of motor work and your first solo.  This phase of training continues until the student has several solo flights on their own.

 

TRAINING

Training usually takes anywhere from 3-10 days, depending on student skills. 

 

Students with prior aeronautical knowledge and parachuting experience can learn in a matter of hours.  However, that does not crown the student as a safe pilot.  After the eventual first solo there will be many more hours of flying, helping the student attain safe flying decisions and skills.

 

Training is usually conducted during weekday evenings and weekends.

 

Training course is $600 and includes PPG Bible and instruction through your PPG2 rating ($250 rebate available upon completion of PPG2).

 

Tandems are $75.  Tandem is subtracted from training fee, if student enrolls in the solo course.
