Beginner course

Beginner course from the Col de la Forclaz (Aerodream)

Organizer: Aerodream Parapente ↗

Aerodream's beginner course for complete novices who want to fly solo over Lake Annecy. The first two days are spent on the training slope practising forward inflation with the wing behind them and first hops, with theory in the afternoons: flight mechanics, flight planning and the reserve parachute. On days three and four, students make morning high flights from the Col de la Forclaz with landing in Doussard, always with an instructor on the radio. The last day adds another flight, a technical review and a plan for the next steps. The course corresponds to the FFVL yellow level and students leave with their free-flight passport. The school lends all equipment including the radio, groups have at most seven students, and a four- or five-day version can be chosen.
