After several weeks of ground handling (practice) lessons and instruction I finally took my first paragliding flight. This launch site is is Fuyang, China about 1 hour from Hangzhou (3 hours South of Shanghai). I had 5 flights on this, my first day. The launch site is on a 300m hill overlooking a farm covered valley. At the landing site local van drivers come out to shuttle gliders back up the hillside. This was a really exciting and beautiful day for me. Many thanks to my teacher Hubi and the other pilots who assisted me on this first day of flying (esp you Riyadh!)
