We will use a number of hills around Virar and may even travel far off location such as Kamshet or Panchgani. We will also do winching in the plains. Every year we plan a number of trips to flying sites outside our local flying area.
This is a proficiency based course and we believe in individual pace of learning. One can finish the course in ten days but we do not rush our students through this important step of paragliding training. You will proceed at the pace you are the most comfortable with and complete the course when you’ve fulfilled all the required tasks and pass the certification test. Your schedule and the weather conditions will have a lot to do with the time it will take to complete this course.
At Virar

At Space Apple you get an advantage of winching flights before graduating to hill flying in the P1 course. The coastal location provides laminar sea breeze every day.
