The balance of the day is spent getting short , actual solo flights off of our small training hill (about 100' tall). By the end of the day.... you will know how to launch, fly & land a Hang Glider at the training hill!

Paul started Flying in 1972 and opened FHHG in 1984. Since the beginning, Paul has maintained customer loyalty through excellent service and personal involvement. As a former Vice President of the USHGA, Paul has donated his time and services consistently, to help insure the sport of hang gliding continues to grow.
Paul specializes in advanced instruction when Fly High's students graduate to mountain flying. Here is where.... with radio communication, students learn to fly high altitude flights, and land in the field below Ellenville mountain's launch.
" I enjoy taking the time to help each individual customer learn to fly safely. Once there is an interest in owning their own glider and flight gear.... and progressing to mountain solo flights.... I carefully assist them in selecting the best equipment to suit their abilities. This equipment selection will help keep them safe and enjoy the sport. Once I get the word from the instructors at the training hill that the student is ready to fly high........ I take over and help them become fully competent mountain pilots "
