Paragliding
is free flight in its purest form. |
|
 |
If you decide to try it, it will be as close to the feeling of flying like a bird as you
will ever get. A paraglider is a foot launched flying wing. It is convenient because
it is easy to carry, easy to setup, and easy to fly. When flying, you can actually soar like
a bird, taking advantage of rising air in the form of thermals or ridge lift.

| We offer an introduction day |
 |

During the introduction day, you will start out by learning the basic theory of flight, learn
how to handle the glider on the ground and then progressively get towed into the air several
feet off of the ground. You can actually fly on your first day!

P-2 Pilot Certification Program |
Our program to become a P-2 (novice) pilot, in order to be able to fly without supervision
at most of USHPA's (United States Hang gliding and Paragliding Association) sanctioned
sites, takes between 7 and 12 days. Our tow operation allows a VERY HIGH percentage of flyable
time because we never have tail winds and we land at take off from flight #1. You can not
turn around a hill, but we can move the tow rig to the other end of the field and continue
teaching. Besides, the area we are located benefits with a very benign weather that allows
us to teach all year long. How you spend those 7 to 12 days is absolutely flexible, but the
most efficient way is to use a whole week. There are plenty lodging facilities only 8 miles
away from our school starting at $35 per night, and Atlanta airport is only 1,5 hours away.
Basic camping facilities are also available. We provide all the equipment during your training
but you will get interesting discounts on our package if you buy it early and also if you finish
your course in less than 30 or 60 days. Please check it out at our "special offers" section.
