Dave Manning
Dave's passion for flying began early on as a child, starting with flying RC planes and power kiting, traveling around the UK chasing the perfect conditions. That soon progressed to him becoming a sponsored kitesurfer and instructor.
He then found paragliding which is where everything changed. He progressed through the ranks becoming a paragliding and paramotor instructor teaching around Europe and UK, seeing his passion shine through teaching he finds very rewarding.
Dave prefers long XC paragliding flights and those calm sunset flights on his paramotor.
In recent years he expanded his wings and gained his private pilots' license and also owned his own plane.
