Scotty5113 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Hi, I've been searching the web looking for training somewhere around Manchester. I did read the recent topic (looking for training in the north west) but it didn't really come up with any local schools. Does anyone have any idea of anywhere fairly local? Firstly I'd just like more info and probably to watch some paramotor pilots in action. Then maybe try a trial day or something like that. I wouldn't mind travelling a bit but would like something local if possible. Airways Airsports looks good, but its more or less a 2 hour drive from here, and that would add a lot if I did eventually decide to do their training. If anyone has any information then it would be good to hear from you. Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is why I thought a school training would be of benefit to me. Thanks for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Troup Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 I gave up trying in this country! I was looking at Airways Airsports, but it would of involved too much driving for unreliable weather/flying conditions. So I bit the bullet recently and booked a 'holiday' to FlySpain... 5 weeks to go! Cheers, Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenM Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 I’m at airways Airsports. I can for sure recommend and got to say the guys there are great. Just book in for that taster day and you will get to fly/check it out. I’m currently learning their but have been waiting for some decent weather. Drive time for me is also around 2hours but it will be worth it !! Spain flying would be top ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
