GROUPS = MORE TASKS ACHIEVED
At Airsports we specialise in Elementary and Club Pilot courses with a good Instructor to Student ratio,
making sure you have the right environment to progress quickly and safely as possible. We
DO NOT teach large groups, stag or fun days, allowing our dedicated BHPA Instructors to
give you the personal tuition you require, in a calm and relaxed atmosphere, on our
exclusive, all wind direction, private sites.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE?
Elementary Pilot takes on average 4 to 5 days and Club Pilot about 5
days. The days do not have to be taken consecutively. Once Club Pilot you can fly
unsupervised.

5 DAY BEGINNERS PARAGLIDING COURSE
Free with equipment**
This is a complete course offering excellent value for Beginners.
Progressing through a series of exercises that start at the bottom of the hill and work
up. First ground control, inflating the canopy, walking it along the ground steering
left and right, a little like flying a large kite. Next, short hop flights just above the
ground while maintaining directional control. Progressing up the hill in stages, from
short hops to low level flights, straight at first then with some turns.
Finally, higher flights with controlled take offs, turns and spot
landings. The
days do not have to be taken consecutively but must be taken within one year. This marks a
recognised level of competence before Club Pilot and unsupervised flight. with some theory
and a basic exam you now have Elementary Pilot. summary of
