Want To Learn To Fly A Paramotor?

To achieve the skills to become solo paramotor pilot are straightforward but the challenges around getting trained in a country where the weather is so unpredictable adds frustration.  That said, appreciating that with patience and commitment you can get airborne and explore your local area from a very different perspective should inspire you. 

​

The rewards associated with flying above the landscape are amazing,  you'll be able to capture awe-inspiring photos, videos and take in aerial views of so may beautiful locations. 

​

You will follow a tried and tested syllabus which records your progress and keeps track of the important milestones of your journey to flight.

BHPA Beginner Paramotor To Solo Pilot

Due to an increase in a demand for local paramotor instruction we are now offering paramotoring training but with some changes to our terms and conditions.

​

From complete beginner to solo pilot level. This means you gain the knowledge skill and experience to be able to fly unsupervised around your local area.
 

The course takes on average 12 instructional days but more days will be added in the case of bad weather. The progression is on average as follows.

• Day 1-5 Wing control – ground handling and controlling the wing during inflation, overhead and collapsing are the key to being a competent pilot. We spend several days learning and practising these core skills. We will also get your feet off the ground with small hops, either on a small hill, being hand towed or pushed into the air.

• Day 6-7 Adding Power to – a day or two getting used to the motor on our backs and pushing us along.

• Day 7-8 - First flights – This phase is about getting you airborne and experiencing launch and landing for real. These are short flights but this is to allow you to get proficient at launching and landing. .

• Day 8-12 - Consolidation flights and complete any outstanding tasks and complete the multiple choice exams if they have not been completed already.
   

  Once all the above have been assessed you will be free to go and fly solo although there are some restrictions on where you can go. This will be explained by Instructor.

 

IMPORTANT:

**Most training happens at weekends as this is when most people are available. 

**Payment must be made before training can begin**

**All courses must be completed within 12 months of enrolment**

​

Damage:  Unfortunately paramotors and gliders cant be insured so you will be responsible for replacing damage caused by you.  I much prefer you to have your own kit so that I don’t have to ask for payment.  Damage to kit can be mitigated with proper training and ground control.  For this reason I will encourage you to become very proficient in glider control.
 

BHPA Membership.  You will have to join the BHPA before training can commence.  This can be paid online or through the school.  This gives you £5,000.000 third party cover that protects other pilots, public and landowners if you injure or cause damage to property and a glossy magazine to your door every month, among other things. This is approximately £190.00​​​
