Paraglider Pilot School

Paraglider flying can be gentle and smooth like the gulls soaring or it can be the intense thrill of riding a strong thermal above the mountain tops.

To be a good pilot you dont have to be an adrenaline fueled action junky you just need to be reasonably fit with steady nerves and have the desire to fly like a bird.

Some common questions:

How long does it take to learn?
It takes on average 10 full flyable days to complete the training for the NZHGPA PG2 rating. This rating allows you to fly at most sites in New Zealand and is widely recognised overseas.
How much does it cost?
How safe is it?
Who can learn to fly?
When can I start?
Where can I stay?
