How actually will you teach me to fly a hangglider?

 

 

We start by teaching you to fly in a tandem hangglider on wheels with an instructor right by your side. You will tow up behind a special powered aircraft and then cast off and glide back down. During this time the instructor will show you how to control the glider and make suitable decisions. After you have done this about 20 times you will find you are making all the decisions and flying the glider without the instructor having to help you or even talk.Your next step will be to learn how to fly a solo glider, also fitted with wheels and eventually fly to 2000 feet by your self. You will remember this first solo flight the rest of your life. After all of this we will teach you to takeoff and land using your feet. Along the way there is about 10 hours theory and even a multiple choice exam.
