This is the course you take to earn your wings.
It is specifically tailored to each student’s learning rates. It includes in-depth instruction by 2 HPAC certified instructors covering everything you need to know about when and how to fly safely in the mountains.

Starting with rigorous on-the-gound training, you will learn to control the power of your wing. Next, you graduate to the training hill to experience you first solo flights.

After mastering the basics, we will move toward fulfilling the requirement of 30 high flights – launching at 900ft and more.

The entire course will also be infused with theory covering: piloting, the dynamics of air, understanding weather conditions, and proper gear maintenance and storage.

The successful completion of the novice course requires that you pass a theory exam as well as demonstrate all required practical skills. Our emphasis is on safety – we want you to fly well, and for a long, long time!
