It is THE manual for anyone wanting to know how to Fly.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Touching Cloudbase: Complete Guide to Paragliding (Paperback)
This book covers every subject that a beginner or intermediate paraglider pilot would want to know. Right from the background and safety aspects through to cross-country flying. It is easy to read and you get a real sense of the authors passion for promoting free flight. It also contains everything neccessary to pass the BHPA exams.

By nick.ford@logical.com (London) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Touching Cloudbase: Complete Guide to Paragliding (Paperback)
This book is a great reference for anyone starting out in paragliding, listing all techniques, air law and weather conditions. While not very creative or inspiring, it is a book that you keep going back to.
