Paragliding Austria – Flugschule Time Flies

• School

Flugschule Time Flies in Kirchbach divides training into a basic course, an altitude-flight course and preparation for the Paragleiterschein/A-Schein. The basic course is outlined as five days plus one reserve day, with no more than eight participants. It starts on a training hill with radio guidance and includes at least five high flights with approximately 600 metres of height difference. The school lends a wing, harness with reserve, helmet and radio.

The follow-on Höhenflugkurs is intended for holders of a valid training confirmation. It also has a five-day format plus a reserve day and a maximum group of eight. It focuses on accumulating high flights and refining take-offs, piloting and landings ahead of the practical examination. Daily weather briefings, site introductions, radio support and theory are included; the timing of theory adapts to the weather.

The final Paragleiterschein/A-Schein course refines practical skills and reviews examination questions together; prior independent theory study is expected. Its included-services list covers the theory examination. Launch transport, take-off and landing fees, accommodation and meals are listed separately from included services.
