Testimonials
Here’s what our happy pilots had to say about our services:
Air School offers a great service to the paragliding community. With the basic license course giving you a good foundation from the first ground handling lessons to first flights and aggregating to achieving the license requirements. Then there’s the longer term post license progression programs which are hugely beneficial for low airtime pilots to maintain a steep learning curve into the sport. With constant mentoring on all aspects of paragliding and a good introduction to so many great sites, there’s a lot of awesome flying to be done. Not to mention all the peers and welcoming community to share your experiences with!
The experience of learning to fly with Air School Paragliding was professional and fun. You can expect a high level of engagement from Ria and the team. You can be sure that the school will teach you to become a proficient pilot. The attention to detail and commitment from the team was astounding, and I can highly recommend the school.
I trained with Airschool paragliding in the beginning of 2020 and successfully got my pilots licence. Ria’s passion for the art of paragliding is reflected in the training I recieved. I got my licence feeling confident and prepared for the big blue sky. The emphasis on safety and good decision making was parmount throughout the course. I would highly recommend Ria if you are looking at getting into the Sky. Happy flying everyone! Regards Stephen
Ria provided excellent, safe and personalised flight tuition. I thoroughly enjoyed the course.
I have flown several XC flights with Ria from Airschool, a few hike and flysand attended an online weather course. Ria always displays a professional attitude towards the sport and his teaching and I’ve only had pleasant experiences!
