Question Paragliding

Are there any paraglider pilots in the Axarquia area?
Would be good to find someone else to go flying with.

paragliding, no me as yet. But I would love to learn to paramotor, amd have seen a couple flying up our valley.

Not been able to locate a local(ish) school but if you find one I would love to learn.

No, but if you get going, let us know where.... I'll stand out and wave!! (have seen the house from EZY so we must be in flyable parts?)

There is this company but maybe it bit far for you to travel, they buzz over my yacht on a daily basis,, looks like fun though.

I used to have an intercambio with a Spanish guy in Velez-Malaga who had his own paramotor, I think your best bet for a pilot could be to get in touch with the airfield at Jardines de Trapiche, there is a flying club there but I'm sorry I don't know the name of the club.

At Trapiche it's the Royal Flying club.

They do fixed wing training there but not paramotors. I did inquire about getting my ppl but their groundschool training is in Spanish.. Not good for me :-(

I found the right one by googling aeropuerto de axarquia, but there didn't seem to be any contact details.
good luck
