CLUB PILOT COURSE
The Club Pilot, CP, is a paragliding course that leads 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.
