Today in SAFER EVERY DAY we’re talking about the real risk of paragliding and the big mistake the average pilot makes.

Statistics have been drawn from a British Hang Gliding and Paragliding study
[ Ссылка ]

and modified by the larger study in France [ Ссылка ]
and its analysis [ Ссылка ] yielding a roughly 2% incident rate.

This is very broad, because it doesn't show airtime/number of flights/training/rating/typical behaviour/wing/local sites which all dramatically affect your particular risk.

What it does show, is you don't want to be average. Aim for excellence!
