FIRST AID

Snowmen can't be seen from the backThis page isn't about instructing you what to do in the event of an accident. I just believe that all pilots should have a good understanding of the principles of first aid. The sport can be very unforgiving and the right action at the right time may save some ones life.

Get yourself a qualification from a nationally recognised organisation, e.g. St Johns Ambulance, or Red Cross. Alternatively, attend a first aid course run by flying clubs/schools that will put emphasis on the problems we would encounter on the hill. You can do the latter by contacting Butterfly Paragliding.
