winsor68 Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 I am hoping to have a go at the lightest form of aviation... Paragliding while on holidays in Rainbow Beach. Does anyone have any experience to share on this?
TAA Student Pilot Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 Nup, does look interesting though. Paragliders are getting performance these days that early hang gliders would have liked.
winsor68 Posted December 24, 2009 Author Posted December 24, 2009 The 15 year old daughter and I both had a Paragliding TIF today... Was ****** brilliant... I was amazed at how safe and comfortable it felt. There were 8 Paragliders flying today, 1 hanglider setting up and a powered paraglider. Going to have to get my certificate... you can buy a new paraglider set up for $6000... how economical.

Does anyone have any experience to share on this? Some years ago I watched paragliders and hang gliders using the same field to land in. Para gliders were like gossamer gently alighting - hang gliders very mechanical and very FAST. I'd take paras anytime, thankyou. Half your luck
