Airworks Paragliding Centre, the premier Parasailing club in Lewes, is excited to promote an exhilarating and unforgettable parasailing event brought to you by Airtrips. If you have ever dreamt of soaring through the skies like an eagle, this is the perfect opportunity to make that dream a reality.
Airtrips, with over twenty years of experience, will be organising trips to the picturesque Indian Himalayan foothills in AUTUMN 2023 and SPRING 2024. Whether you are a beginner or a near-expert, this adventure is open to pilots of all levels. In fact, back in 2015, Airtrips achieved a remarkable feat by completing a 125 km out and return cross-country flight, which was one of the longest guided group xc flights at that time.
To ensure the best possible experience and progression for pilots, group sizes are intentionally kept small. This allows for personalised attention and instruction tailored to individual needs. For beginners, Airtrips guarantees that you will become a competent XC pilot, equipped with the skills to identify and utilise thermal lift to cover substantial distances and land safely. Experienced pilots, on the other hand, can benefit from quality instruction amidst the awe-inspiring scenery and gentle thermals of the Indian Himalayas.
The weather conditions during these trips are generally ideal for flying, with cloud bases rising quickly and thermals measuring around 3 m/s. As the season progresses, climbs to 5000m become a regular occurrence. Spring trips offer even more potential for stronger thermals and higher cloud bases, promising an exhilarating experience for pilots seeking an extra thrill.
Aside from the thrilling parasailing activities, Airtrips ensures that non-flying pursuits are also on the agenda. You can indulge in backcountry skiing, snowshoeing, visits to the captivating Dharamsala, relaxing in hot springs, exploring 1000-year-old temples, invigorating trekking excursions, and even embark on a motorcycle adventure.
The package offered by Airtrips includes comprehensive instruction, convenient airport transfers, transportation to launch sites, and comfortable half-board accommodation. Flights can be conveniently arranged through Air India, departing from Heathrow to Delhi. If you prefer, you also have the option to join the group at Delhi or Bir.
Don't miss this incredible opportunity to join Airtrips on their phenomenal parasailing adventure in the Indian Himalayan foothills. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced pilot, this promises to be an adventure like no other, where you can fulfil your dreams of flying like an eagle.
