When is the best time to come

CFI Terry Stubbs has been flying paragliders since 1988, he together with SI Sandra pioneered Himalayan flying and have operated regular trips to the Everest region since 1990. Their thirst for new and interesting places to fly has led them to Mexico, Equador, Kyrgrzstan, Morocco, Norway, Tibet and South Africa as well as most of the European flying areas. Their flying and teaching experience is wide ranging and deep. Adventure Extreme probably qualify more CPs than any other school because of the normally excellent conditions found here in the sunny south of France. Several CPs have flown 30 km or more as their first ever XC from Laragne and more experienced pilots have flown over 100 km whilst on courses. You can too but if you dont go you'll never know.
