admin (Simon W) Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 There are a couple of Paragliding school in the area but I am not sure if there are any Paramotor ones. We had a couple of students last year who were from Brighton which would suggest they had the same struggle. Welcome to the Paramotor Club.

mgrant Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Airworks near Lewes do BHPA paramotor training. http://www.airworks.co.uk/ Fly Spain provide BHPA training. https://www.flyspain.co.uk/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shorehambeach Posted June 23, 2017 Author Share Posted June 23, 2017 What should be the approx training cost to learn to paramotor only from scratch ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admin (Simon W) Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 I don't think Airworks do Paramotor training. I am almost certain they are only a Paragliding school. It should cost somewhere around the £1000 mark. SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that include caviar and a personal maid? Bit steep! Plus CP is only half way to Full Pilot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admin (Simon W) Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 That is bonkers amount's of money for 2/3rd's of a course. I would be tempted to keep looking SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyB Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Skyschool, UK, Italy or Oman. I think it's £800 for 6 days. It was £600 18 months ago when I did mine in Spain. It really did mean 6 days, so bad weather did not count as a day. This one does training to the APPI syllabus and AXA do global insurance for this. https://www.skyschooluk.com/ https://appippg.org/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
