OFS-ADVANCED high-flight course

Organizer: OFS Paragliding ↗

OFS-ADVANCED is the second part of the German A-licence training at OFS Paragliding. The seven-day course starts with a two-day A-licence theory seminar, followed by five days of simulator practice and flying with 20 supervised high flights following the DHV syllabus, with radio guidance. Depending on the weather, the high flights take place at the school's sites either from mountain launches or by winch tow, so the same training can also prepare students for the winch-launch rating. Training venues are Marktoberdorf, Pfronten, Tannheim in Tyrol and Meransen (Weitental) in South Tyrol. Students buy a helmet and paragliding boots in the school shop before or at the start of the course; equipment for the high flights can be rented, or bought as a beginner package. The OFS-PERFECT final course follows.
