Glasgow's longest established BHPA (British Hang Gliding & Paragliding Association) registered school offering paragliding and paramotoring training for all levels of pilot at Tinto Hill in Lanarkshire. Come and experience for yourself the exhilaration and the excitement of controlled flight with a sophisticated canopy. Paragliding pilots come from all walks of life (and are all ages) but the common element is adventure. Paragliding is a challenging sport which takes you out on the hills and into the skies with ease and style.
What we do best:
We train students in accordance with the BHPA Pilot Rating Scheme, form day one to advance training. On a pilots first day we hope to get them a solo flight to give them the experience of being airborne. Once the student gets the bug, they can continue to get a qualification - Club Pilot level, allows them to fly unsupervised in the club environment.We give advice in the purchase of equipment, and are distributors for most leading brands of canopies and harnesses, and have an extensive selection of second hand gear available.
