Our Philosophy
WE TAKE YOUR TRAINING SERIOUSLY.
Over the last Decade, we’ve developed and refined a complete training package based on, and exceeding the USPPA guidelines. Our students go home with not only the skills necessary to fly paramotors, but the knowledge to keep themselves and others safe and the wisdom to make sound decisions as Pilot in Command of an aircraft.
WHAT’S INCLUDED?
You’ll be training on our gear. Your training is broken down into 2 phases. First off, you’ll get extensive training in the field ground handling your glider and classroom work covering laws of the sky, glider and motor essentials, weather and safety.
In Phase 2, we’ll put everything together in flight and develop your ability to skillfully take off, fly and land your glider.
