There are some good pilot and adventure companies available to rent equipment from Bir Village. Have a long talk with them to find out their abilities. Average cost per person for an auxiliary flight is around Rs.1500/- to Rs.2500/- (depending on the season and instructor). However there is no formal mechanism in sight to verify the details. harness. Helmet and a short conversation with the copilot and it was me and the sky’s vision was limitless. I was second in the queue.
It is an sequence of actions.The parachute must be used with the back extended, and the strings checked for tangle.
