Welcome to Paragliding Country

 Premium flying sites on the beautiful Sussex Downs

Have you ever dreamed of soaring like a bird? Airworks can make that dream a reality. Paragliding and paramotoring can be enjoyed be people of any age - You can learn to paramotor in as little as six days or learn to paraglide in as few as ten days.

Paragliding is just made for the mid-life crisis - Did you know that about half of the UK paraglider pilots are beyond retirement age, so no excuses about being too old? Also it is not about strength, so the ladies actually tend to learn faster!

Learn to fly with the Airworks Paragliding School. We train more pilots to completion of their Club Pilot rating than any other southern school, despite keeping our group sizes small and having a small intake! We train orders of magnitude more pilots to the more advanced 'Pilot' and 'Advanced Pilot' ratings than all other local schools put together. We are the only BHPA school providing Paramotor training in Sussex.

Airworks Paragliding Centre is situated right in the heart of the premier flying sites of south east England on Sussex's beautiful South Downs. We are 400 metres north of the A27 in the village of Glynde and are along the main Brighton and London to Eastbourne railway lines.

Alongside our centre is a fully stocked shop of  paramotors, paragliders, hang gliders and associated equipment. We also have excellent classroom facilities equipped for all your theory and tuition needs and an on-site cafe. Please feel free to pop in for a coffee and a chat,

In 2011 It proved to be flyable every day that we were there.  

Clients flew XC on most days with the best day yeilding 110km out-and-return flights, probably a record for a guided group!

2013 Spring XCs - We are considering a trip in March 2013 for the more hardened XC pilots. Please let us know if you are interested.

2012 Autumn - BOOK NOW! Building on our ten highly successful trips, we will once more be off to that most reliable and mellow thermal paradise, the green and luscious Indian Himalayan foothills...

SIV - Simulated Incidents in Flight - MAY 19th 2012

SIV in the first world! Lake Annecy, France. May 2012

SIV AnnecyThis course is personally tailored specifically to ensure that whatever level pilot you are now, you'll remain in one piece to become an old pilot! As well as being educational, SIV is great fun... The initial trepidation at collapsing your perfectly functional glider is rapidly replaced by a huge grin as you learn how safe your wing is and just how easy it is to pilot out of the most unusual attitudes ...unless you have got a two-liner that is ;0)
