Top Gun Flight School

At iParaglide Top Gun Flight School, we take pride in having taught over 1900 paragliding students in our 26 years of operation.

We are the the longest running school based in Metro Vancouver. Due to our central location, we are the only school that flies all of the relevant kiting parks, training hills and mountains within a 3 hour radius of Vancouver.  This empowers pilots to get to know the key training and flying spots early, optimizes and accelerates learning, and allows them to grow into great future pilots.  

We have the reputation of being an industry leader with an emphasis on engineered safety systems, quality instruction, the finest equipment and a positive learning environment for fun and empowering flying.

We offer the highest level of accreditation, with Senior HPAC and Advanced USHPA paragliding instructors, who coach from first flight to expert paraglider pilots and teach and qualify new paragliding instructors.

Flynet2 ASI Purchase Inquiry 


The FlyNet2 variometer is a compact unit, light and precise. Used by itself, it is an excellent audible variometer. It is ideal to fly with in tandem or solo modes due to its featherweight construction, or be used as a backup variometer. Its small dimensions enable it to easily fit inside a jacket pocket.

This instrument shows its full potential when wirelessly connected via Bluetooth to the IOS ( iPhone and iPad ), and Android mobil platforms.

 

 

The free of charge FlyNet program download ( iOS or Android ), generates the variometer sounds. All the flight technical information is then displayed on the smartphone or tablet screen. See FlyNet App Manual for additional information. It is also compatible with a growing number of paragliding apps including Flyskyhy, G-Vario, PPGpS, Air Navigation Pro, Gaggle, SkyLogger, LK8000, XCSoar, Thermgeek...
