25 years of Paragliding
11 days Novice Pilot P3
If you have reached here, you will wonder why you did not opt for the student for life program. This program will make you a pilot who can independently fly but will still need guidance to really soar the skies with eagles, cranes, vultures and so on. It will be a shame if you have worked and achieved P3 and miss out on climbing in thermals, going from place to place, land on mountains, camp on untouched terrain, sky is no longer the limit, its a place of unlimited experiences.
NOTE- This paragliding course is designed to take novice pilots and progress them into independent solo pilots, who no longer require direct instructor supervision and can fly independently but with other P4 rated pilots who are keeping an eye on them pilot for safety.
