"While in Africa, I had a chance to meet many pilots from around the world that have been traveling to remote places and flying for the joy of exploration off the beaten path.
I have been invited by Craig Papworth to be a part of a trip going to India Oct 14th to Oct 24th as an instructor and freefly."

"This is the 4th trip going to the town of Bir which is located at the base of the Indian Himalaya. After the pictures and stories I heard about the past trips...it for sure will be an adventure!"

"The trip for the organizer is about sharing the passion of adventure at a reasonable cost for all...which is hard to believe...but a few are still out there. The trip cost is $1500.00 for 10 days...as long as the euro slows down."

     -Gary Begley

 


The tours are aimed at pilots who are either:


Experienced pilots looking for a new adventure and to sample Vol Biv flying

Intermediate pilots who are looking to hone their thermal skills in consistent conditions, but in a challenging environment

Newer pilots looking to develop their thermal flying skills in an area where you are almost guaranteed to stay up.

Any pilot wanting to fly the mighty and visually stunning Himalayas

All pilots who love flying with birds of prey
