INSTRUCTOR REVIEWS:
“I sincerely appreciated all of the discussions, information and exercises that Chritians covered as part of the course. The course materials that CHristian covered were the information that I had been seeking during my AFF course. The exercises we conducted helped me tremendously to become more confident as a pilot and most importantly assisted me in being able to land my canopy better.”
