Our Blog is an up to date record of what we have been up to both in the school and out of it. We endeavour to update it as regularly as possible and include a sample the days pictures when available.

You can scroll back through the Blog and follow various students progress through their training and get a good idea of how the school operates.

You will also find records of our trips abroad which will give you a good idea of what to expect should you wish to come on one with us.

Please visit it on a regular basis and feel free to add comments.

Oooo La La

We arrived in Laragne early yesterday evening to temperatures up in the high 20's to low 30's. Met lots of flying friends and watched the 4 pilots who made goal (in the Dutch Comp) land, 3 were Brits. Set up tent made tea and went to bed zzzzzzzz.
Today it was forecast to storm so we opted out of going up Chabre and headed to Sederon instead to check out the flying sights and hopefully get a spot of Paragliding in. At the top of a 600m site it was already picking up and getting thermic so I got off quickly and had a nice thermic flight before checking out the bottom landing field and very nice it is too. Kaz and Chris opted not to fly after watching another low airtimer having a spot of bother on launch, wise choice I think.
Then it was off to a bar for a spot of lunch followed by an afternoon in the Gorge building dams and chilling out in readiness for the British Nationals that start on Sunday. Will try to keep updated as we go along.
