i1tojump 0 #1 April 10, 2005 I am looking into taking a canopy control course in the very near future. I want to polish up on the fundamentals and learn advanced piloting skills the right way. My question is this. Which school do you think is the best to go to and at that school any recomendations on which instructor to request. I plan on paying for 1 on 1 instruction and traveling to where the school may be. The only requirements on the travel I want is that it is in the US and prefer the east coast but that's subject to change if the best place is elsewhere. So hit me up with your suggestions. Thanks.

You will learn something new and different from each teacher you have...this affords you the most complete, rounded-out foundation for flying. Eventually you will find 'the best' teacher for you (at that time). They all have different techniques, out-looks and vibes, some of which you may find yourself more in agreement with than with others. Now, practically speaking, start somewhere or with someone close and work up to as many of the big canopy schools and teachers as you can. I have heard from many people that Scott Miller does a fantastic job and I can say Brian Germain has taught me more than I thought there was to know. -R QuoteI am looking into taking a canopy control course in the very near future.
