23-28 January 2027, Wanaka
Women teaching women makes for great straight line communication, fun, a relaxed and mutually supportive environment, customised learning.
This season, Eva has recruited wonderful Sanae to help with the group, a local Wanaka / QT pilot who is an amazing XC and local tandem pilot who knows the Wanaka and QT conditions exceptionally well.
During the week, we focus on good thermalling and budding XC skills, weather forecasts and interpretation, reading the sky once you are out at the site and flying, and listen to what you would like to learn or improve on.
In the morning, we discuss the conditions and what the best options are for the day. We brief the most suitable flight plan for the day and your skills and expectations, we offer inflight coaching and debriefs.
We will add in theory sessions on personalised equipment, weather, speed to fly, XC planning, changing level of confidence and whatever interests you.
You need to be a qualified NZ PG2 pilot or an Australian min PG2 or 3 pilot, or the overseas equivalent.
We have a lovely house we can rent together, let me know if that's what you'd like.
Should you be unsure if this week is for you, any of the details, your experience, what you'd like out of the course, please contact Eva at eva@wingsandwaves.co.nz - just ask!
