Hello
Paraglider pilot
I am a professional instructor with a two-seater paragliding license (engine and engineless), and in the winter I fly with clients not only over Lake Biwa but also in the skies of Shizuoka.
I also have a light airplane license.

story
I love airplanes, and when I was 30, I finally got my family's permission to get a pilot's license. After that, I co-owned a four-seater private plane and flew around. In the summer when I was 49, I went to Mt. Ibuki with my daughter to try paragliding, and I thought, "It would be great if I could do this activity for my work for the rest of my life!" So I started training to get a professional license.
The following year, I got my two-seater license.
