Course Inclusion
This training program includes the complete P1 (Beginner), P2 (Novice), and P2 (Advanced) levels as per standard paragliding progression.

Students cover all skills, theory, and supervised flights required to achieve these levels within the structured 10-day period.

Prerequisites

Comprehensive Entry: As this course includes P1 material, no prior paragliding experience is strictly required to join.

Suitable for beginners committed to a faster progression track.

Practical Skills, Theory & Duration

Practical Skills

Expands core skills with advanced ground-handling and precise canopy control.

Launches: Mastering forward & reverse launches in varying wind conditions.
In-Flight: Active piloting (pitch/roll control), coordinated turns, and structured thermal entry.
Soaring: Slope-launch refinement and confidence-building soaring techniques.

Theory & Instruction

Comprehensive instruction for pilots progressing through P1, P2, and P2 Advanced.

Topics: Meteorology fundamentals, airspace awareness, ridge rules, and risk analysis.
Planning: Flight planning, approach setup, and traffic pattern management.
Safety: Emergency procedures, incident avoidance, and safe decision-making frameworks.

Duration & Flights

10 days of structured practical and theoretical training (weather dependent).

Flights: Includes 8–12 solo flights, progressively increasing in height and complexity.

Radio-guided flights ensure safe, progressive learning from take-off to landing.

Operational Rights & FAI Information

Prerogatives

APPI 2 pilots may fly only under instructor supervision using radio communication. High flights require a certified emergency parachute.

APPI Rules

APPI certification is internal. It grants rights only if recognized by local authorities. Pilots must develop discipline and awareness to fly safely.

FAI Infos

In countries where the free-flight authority (NAC) recognizes APPI, the license typically aligns with FAI IPPI 2 standards.
