CFI Steve Griffiths | |
 Steve has been involved in the sport now for 21 years and has gained a considerable amount of knowledge in all aspects of flying, guiding and teaching, from day 1 beginner’s right through to advanced pilot training in big mountain conditions. All this knowledge has come from years of experience, dedication, flying and working all round the world.Steve has over 2000 hours flying in all sorts of conditions from demanding and strong to tranquil and mellow, “We used to follow the thermals and travel to the best places to fly far for the time of year we were there”. On each trip we had over 50% of the students beating their personal bests by flying further and better than they ever had before. By gaining this expert knowledge, Steve now transfers what he has learnt to his colleges, friends and students, and has been working full time in the school teaching people to fly. Steve has flown in places to include Austria, Brazil, France, Italy, Monoco, Morocco, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey and of course the UK.. | |
