Cyprus is a friendly place in which to fly and we have found almost no negative feelings towards pilots or flying here. To keep it that way we are particularly careful to respect their property, crops and animals and we ask that all those who come here to fly do so as well. Should primary landing fields have active crops on them there are always alternatives at the sites we mention here. 

Vassos Pantelas pioneered flying on the Island and has written a site guide. He may also be available to show visiting pilots some of the sites with prior arrangement. His e-mail address is: vassosnet@logos.cy.net. 

Sotos Kristofordou has great knowledge of local sites and is a good contact for visiting pilots. He flies regularly and can show you many sites that we don't mention here. He may be contacted by telephone as follows: 09-606211 

For those of you who are here and wish to contact the British Forces Hang Gliding/Paragliding Club the number is: (05) 276352. This is currently an answering machine which may not be checked for a couple of days, so be sure to give your name, location and a local phone number where you may be reached, as well as when you called, so they may respond. This may be a hit or miss kind of thing. 

Finally, we would like to remind visiting pilots that flying here, as anywhere, can be very dangerous. The inland  sites are not officially developed or operated and you fly at your own risk. Kourion is controlled by the SBA and membership in the BFHGC is required to fly there. They can then inform you of site rules and an information board has been installed at the site.
