VR TRAINING FOR PARAGLIDING SCHOOLS

Rehearse decisionsbefore take-off.

Meet a virtual reality training simulator that lets instructors create repeatable sessions around flight decisions, landing plans, gliding and thermals. Each exercise can follow the needs and experience of an individual pilot.

02 / A MODERN TRAINING METHOD

Practice.Understand.Repeat.

In a controlled environment, free from stress.

Set the wind, thermal currents, flying area and difficulty around a clear training objective. Restart the exercise, analyse what happened and repeat it immediately while the decision is still fresh.

Build a gradual learning path from initiation to advanced skills, or use focused sessions when a pilot returns after a break. Normal and extreme behaviours can be explored according to the selected software and hardware.

03 / BOOK A PERSONAL DEMO

Choose howwe meet.

Book a personal presentation of the simulator at Coupe Icare or invite us to your paragliding school. We will show how a session can be configured around the objectives and level of your pilots.

B

Request a visit to your school

Tell us where your school is based and which type of training interests you. We will contact you to discuss dates and arrange an in-person simulator presentation in Europe.

04 / WHAT YOUR SCHOOL CAN EXPLORE

A session builtaround the pilot.

01

Configure

Adapt the wind, thermal currents, flying area and difficulty to the exercise and the pilot’s level. Increase complexity gradually, from first lessons to advanced skills or refresher training.

02

Observe

Give the instructor more time to observe, explain and correct the selected skill. Sessions can focus on flight decisions, landing plans, gliding, thermals or preparation for a specific site.

03

Repeat

Restart and analyse the same exercise while the decision is still fresh. Repetition makes it possible to work on one objective for as many sessions as the student needs.

05 / TRAIN THROUGHOUT THE YEAR

Keep trainingwhen you cannot fly.

Continue training in bad weather, out of season or between flights. Prepare for a new flying site or trip before arriving, and maintain continuity when real flying conditions interrupt the learning plan.

07 / BEFORE WE MEET

Questions fromparagliding schools.

Who is the simulator designed for?

For paragliding schools working with pilots in initiation, refresher or advanced training. The instructor can adapt each exercise to the pilot’s objective, level and learning pace.

What can we work on?

Sessions can cover flight decisions, landing plans, gliding, thermals and preparation for a new flying area. Normal and extreme behaviours depend on the software and hardware used.

Can training continue outside the flying season?

Yes. The method is designed for bad-weather days, off-season training, time between flights and preparation for a new flying site.

Can you visit our school?

Yes. Use the school-visit form to request an in-person presentation anywhere in Europe. We will contact you to discuss dates, your training needs and travel.

Is technical support available?

Yes. The academy materials include personalised and ongoing support by phone, WhatsApp or email.
