BHPA CLUB PILOT COURSE

The Club Pilot (CP) is a BHPA paragliding course and carries on from the Elementary Pilot (EP) course. Our location allows you to take advantage of the excellent weather conditions and high mountains of Switzerland for maximum airtime! Boasting over 300 flyable days per year, there is no better place to complete your CP syllabus!

This is a really exciting course where you will gain a lot of airtime and start to really become confident in the air. This course has a jam-packed syllabus where you will be learning new and important exercises on every flight as well as starting to safely take-off and land without any input from our instructors. You will also learn high-wind launch techniques, (the famous reverse launch), as well as some classroom based theory lessons on meteorology, aerodynamics and other subjects that will help you become a better and safer pilot.

The aim of this course is that you will leave our school qualified and feeling confident to go and fly alone.

OBJECTIVE

To get qualified to paraglide unsupervised.

DATES

Our CP paragliding courses run every week of the summer from the end of May through to the end of September. Courses start every Monday throughout the summer. If you have booked accommodation, the arrival day is every Sunday and departure the following Saturday.

"I can only thank the team for an excellent and highly professional EP course week – it was an amazing experience – from finally grasping my take off’s (Guy and Emmie have the patience of a saint.) and landing to the overall experience of the first flight. The professionalism and encouragement from the team was second to none in making the students feel comfortable and confident – a lot of people could learn from this in general industry…"

"I could not recommend these guys enough. Professional and friendly. Thank you for a great flight. I booked this for my daughters birthday and she absolutely loved it."

""The views are amazing and the employees / instructors / tandem jumpers were professional, skilled, friendly, and a pleasure to work with. We had a great experience and highly recommend it. This was definitely a highlight of our vacation that will be hard to top. When else will you have the opportunity to say you went paragliding off the Swiss Alps?""
