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.

Up with the lark ( well at least some seagulls)

With a soarable slot forecast early before the wind increased and the rain came there was quite a gathering ( 5 to be precise)at Perranporth by 07.30. Amazingly it wasn't windy enough so we had to wait a bit for it to fill in. The time was not wasted with some ground handling, slope landings and Dougie getting to grips with his new Tandem wing.
The wind veered and filled in and pretty soon it was soarable with Paul h getting up there first. Dougie took me up as passenger to get his first tandem flights under his belt as pilot in command. Have to say it's always weird going up as passenger but Dougie did a good job although a little more practice is required on the landings, maybe tomorrow. Kaz go up there with Paul as the wind picked up a bit more and pretty soon it was getting towards the top end for paragliders. Add a couple of flights on the school Mojo 1, still a nice glider after all the work it has done and by 11 o'clock it was all over.
