S.I.V. Course - Paragliding Flight Accident Simulation
Learn to handle unforeseen and critical set-ups: Paragliding with awareness and control
The S.I.V. (Simulated Flight Inconvenience) course is one of the most important steps for every Paraglider pilot. It is not an aerobatic course, but an essential training course to know one's own limits and those of one's Paraglider, learning how to handle critical situations and unusual attitudes with lucidity.
Organized by the Flylibell Paragliding School on Lake Como, the course is divided into three levels (basic, intermediate, and advanced) and structured to suit the abilities and goals of each individual pilot.
Who is the Paragliding Flight Inconvenience Simulation course for?
The S.I.V. course is suitable for all licensed pilots, from the newly licensed to those who have been flying for years and want to strengthen their safety, reaction skills and technique.
Each level has precise requirements and a specific program of maneuvers, with the possibility of advancement to the next level only after practical evaluation by the instructor.
