If you want to learn to paraglide well and safely, Jeff is your man. He is appropriately demanding of your attention and effort because he loves the sport and wants you to succeed. His course offers by far the best result for the money.
It was immediately obvious to me on my first lesson that I was in good hands, and with Jeff’s seasoned and intuitive guidance, quickly felt at ease with the wing. Jeff’s enthusiasm for flight is infectious, giving me the bug before I even got in the air. There’s no other way to put it, paragliding is a BLAST, and Jeff makes sure you get the full experience.
Try hard and don’t be late, because Jeff will do the same for you. In the end, I came out a much more enthusiastic and capable pilot than if I had learned from anyone else.
Jeff’s the man.

Thanks again, Jeff for the wonderful introduction to the art of paragliding.
If it’s possible to be humbler than I was previously, I am. But I’m also excited by actually having gotten aloft for a true taste of flight. Thank you for allowing me that taste even though you knew it was premature. I now have a truer sense of the exhileration that Orville & Wilbur must have felt with their first flights. And an appreciation of the challenging road ahead if I’m to gain the necessary skills for piloting.
At this point my first/biggest challenge is financial. More about that later. For now, Thank you once again for your patience, encouragement and excellent instruction.

I would like to say thank you to Jeff Greenbaum for the wonderful experience I had while learning to paraglide with Airtime of SF.
The program was fun, thorough and kept student safety at the forefront. I flew in from the east coast and Jeff went out of his way to make me feel at home in the Bay Area. Take a tandem flight with Jeff and you’ll immediately feel what it’s like to fly with a veteran pilot.
Jeff is a true professional as an instructor and a very fair business man when you get ready to buy your gear. I feel confident in myself as a novice pilot after going through his P2 program. You’ll be in good hands with Airtime SF. If you dream about flying, give Jeff a call.

Airtime is the BEST! I still can’t believe how much fun I’ve had, and I attribute a lot of it to Jeff and his system. He covers everything with incredible passion, attention to safety, and really makes you feel in control every step of the way. What a great teacher.
I signed up for the Unlimited P2+ package, and that turned out to be a great program for me. I never felt rushed, and I ended up getting many weeks worth of instruction, progressing at my own pace. The ground school sessions are terrific too, and I eventually got my P2 rating in about 3 months. What a thrill! But it doesn’t end there.
Graduates of Airtime become part of a flying community, made possible by their message board and web resources. We even get to tag along on mountain trips with their current students. Jeff also provides “continuing education” for his graduates. As my abilities and level of experience grows, he has provided new site intros and continued guidance. In addition, he writes and updates many articles about learning to fly a paraglider.
Airtime has also been a great resource for paragliding equipment. As I started to “gear-up” Jeff was there to guide me through the many choices to find the right wing, harness, helmet, etc. His experience and integrity make it a pleasure to do business with him. Its a real plus to know you’re getting sound advice, a fair price, and good customer service.
Thanks for everything Jeff. Cheers!

” Dreams do come true, I have wanted to paraglide for so long and finally have achived it, All I can say is WOW!! Airtime is the only school I would recomend to anybody looking to learn, Jeff dedicates his time to each and every student in his school 100%. He has a very strong hold on safety, wich is important to all of us in this sport. Jeff is a very honest and kind person who will teach you more than you need to know to be a safe pilot.”

Karen Holtemman about 7-6-07 Hat Creek Mtn. Trip
Hi Jeff,
I wanted to thank you for the Hat Creek trip last weekend. It was fantastic to finally fly long enough to quit hyperventilating 
. I was pretty nervous for the morning flight, but felt much more relaxed for the evening flight. To finally get up there and have enough time to experiment and feel the wing was just fantastic.
I also met some great people – it was just a great time!

Hi Jeff,
I absolutely had an amazing day yesterday. And I was once again amazed by your experience compared to others. Thanks again for the wonderful experience.
Today I went to Ed Levin for some kiting practice in the afternoon, but it was windy and I had stop after some time. Hopefully I will be able to go for some more practice this week.

Mike Davenas – Bagpipe Instructor and student very close to his P2
I just wanted to let you know, teacher to teacher, that I am totally in awe of your dedication.
You go way beyond the call of duty. You have inspired me as a bagpipe teacher to do more than I do.
Thanks,
Mike
