| takeoff | Take off faces NNW and is from a flat paved area in front of the large statue of a monk. The site works well in mos wind directions between NE and NW. The local geography seems to funnel the wind up the hill and and it surprisingly easy to stay up in light winds. When the wind is strong then you will be lifted off the ground. If you are not used to flying in strong dynamic lift then wait until the wind eases off. Please be aware that there is a tandem operation here between October and February. Give way to tandems when it is safe to do so. |

| rules | All pilots need to be Parapro 3 or above to fly unsupervised. All other pilots need to have an instructor. If you cant show your license then you can't fly. Site fees are 100 baht per day or 1000 per year payable on take off. A radio must be carried at all times with the site frequency being 144.425 Mhz. Site briefing must be carried out by one of the resident pilots before your first flight. Do not fly over the head of any of the statues as this will cause problems with our neighbours in the temple. Do not climb up the front of the highest pert of the mountain as this disturbs the monks there. If in doubt ask a local pilot. No tandem flying without the prior approval of Koh Larn Flying School. No acro...... |
| access | When you arrive on the island talk to any of the motorbike taxi guys and tell them you want to go paragliding at Khao Yai. They all know where to take you. They will charge you around 50-100 baht to take you to take off. |
