Hanggliding Certification
Hang 2 (Novice Rating)
Once you
have successfully reached the Hang 1 level you will be ready to
tackle the "Hang 2" rating. Here at Foothills
Flight Park we have the expertise and experience it takes to
train you through (and past) you Hang 2 rating. To achieve
"Hang 2" status we will teach you to perform these
required skills safely and skillfully:
- Land three times in a row within 100
ft. of a target
- Complete Linked 90º turns. These
turns must alternate from left to right (or vice versa) and
demonstrate smooth control
- Demonstrate fast and slow flight
- Pass an oral exam
- Pass a written exam
Novice pilots are trained to judge
flying conditions for themselves and make decisions on weather
to fly or not. With a Hang 2 (Novice) rating you are free
to fly without the direct supervision of an instructor. Once
these skills are learned you are ready to move on to your
"Hang 3" or intermediate skills. More hang
2 information can be found at the USHGA
site.
