Welcome
Welcome to the IHPA website. The IHPA is the National Association for the sports of Hang Gliding, Paragliding, Paramotoring and Powered Hang Gliding in Ireland. We were founded in 1974 as the Irish Hang Gliding Association and later expanded to include the newer sports of paragliding and foot-launched powered aviation.
The IHPA is a democratic association of pilots run by its members, guided by its Constitution which it adopted in 1997. The Executive Committee is elected by its members at the AGM, and anyone may put their names forward for election. The committee comprises a Chairman, a Secretary, a Treasurer, the Training & Flight Safety Officer, a Hang Gliding and a Paragliding Competitions Officers. The committee may, and occasionally does, co-opt other members to oversee particular tasks.
First and foremost this is *your* Association, so please play an active part in it!

- Affiliation (through NACI) to FAI/CIVL – see the Organisation & Afilliations page for the benefits of this.
- FAI/CIVL internationally recognised and accepted Pilot Ratings scheme (Safe Pro & Para Pro) – Non-affiliated schools can not issue ratings and those pilots cannot get IPPI cards.

- A detailed on-line sites guide - maps / descriptions hazards / photos / pilot's comments.
- Liaison & relations with landowners - this is exceptionally important!

- Liason with Irish Aviation Authority on regulatory matters and updating airspace maps to include HG/PG flying sites - directly and through GASCI.
- IHPA negotiates bulk insurance deal with insurance companies - and is constantly searching for better cover and better prices.
- An excellent website (though we say so ourselves!)
- A list of all the members of the association around the country and their contact details so that you can find and fly with pilots near you.
- Two open mailing lists to keep pilots informed and to help them fly together.
- The IHPA assists members in competing in free flying competitions outside Ireland, including the World Championships and Pre-Worlds.
- Contact point and liaison for foreign pilots / NGBs.
- Competitions / XC league / Celtic Cup / foreign comps & opens.
- Text alerts for competitions.
- A clear conscience that issues affecting you, your flying and landowners are being taken care of on your behalf.
- You are supporting the sport in Ireland and not taking advantage (as some do) of the work of the IHPA.
Not to put too fine a point on it, but not being a member is a selfish abuse of the privileges that members of the IHPA have worked hard over the years to gain for all pilots in Ireland.
What Your Membership Fee Pays For
Here are just a few of the ways we put your fees to work for you:
- Assisting members to compete in international competitions.
- Membership of the National Aero Club of Ireland (about €292 per year.)
- Membership of the European Hang Gliding & Paragliding Union (about €150 per year.)

- Postage and Stationary (about €200 per year.)
- Other minor expenses incurred in the day to day running of the Association.
- Accountant's fees for auditing the IHPA accounts at the end of the year (about €000? per year.)
- The balance is banked so that the Association has some funds available for special or one-off projects like improving access to a flying site or the HG Bursary Scheme.
Officer's travel expenses, to and from the monthly committee meetings, are not paid for by your membership fee - that comes out of their own pockets, as does their time and efforts on your behalf.
Organisation & Affiliations
This is somewhat complicated, so pay attention!
- IHPA - The IHPA is the National Association and National Representative Body for the sports of free-flying in Ireland.
- NACI - The National Aero Club of Ireland is recognised by the Irish Sports Council as the National Governing Body representing all air sports in Ireland.
- ISC - The Irish Sports Council is the statutory body governing all sporting activity in Ireland.
- FAI - The Federation Aeronautique Internationale is the International Governing Body for all air sports and sanctioned competitions around the world.
- CIVL - The Commission Internationale de Vol Libre is the Hang Gliding and Paragliding Commission of the FAI.
- EAS - Europe Air Sports.
- EHPU - The European Hang Gliding and Paragliding Union.
- GASCI - The General Aviation Sacety Council of Ireland.
The IHPA is a member of the National Aero Club of Ireland and has two seats on the NACI committee to represent IHPA interests.
The IHPA is afilliated to the FAI through the NACI and is a delegate member of CIVL.
The IHPA is recognised by CIVL / FAI as the National Representative Body for free-flying in Ireland (FAI is not interested in the ISC / NACI structure.)
The IHPA has two seats on the CIVL council to represent Irish interests.
The IHPA is a member of the EHPU, and by association, also a member of EAS.
The IHPA is a founding member of GASCI.
So, what do ISC / NACI / FAI & CIVL / EAS / GASCI do for the IHPA?
ISC
The Irish Sports Council (ISC) is the statutory body tasked with encouraging the promotion of, funding the development of and regulating competitive sports in Ireland. Until 2006 the ISC recognised the IHPA and many other sport-aviation Associations as the NGBs for their individual sports within Ireland. In 2006, however, the ISC decided that individual air sports are, in general, too small to justify individual recognition. ISC asked National Aero Club of Ireland to apply for umbrella body recognition for all air sports. They have taken the same approach with other groups of sports e.g. athletics and equestrian sports. The ISC recognises the National Aero Club of Ireland (NACI) as the National Governing Body for all air sports in this country. The ISC is potentially a large source of funding that would allow the IHPA to sponsor pilots to compete internationally at CIVL / FAI sanctioned events and help the development of the sport in Ireland and help pay for the training of new instructors and the development of the sport in Ireland. It could also assist in opening up new flying sites that at present have no safe or convenient access by road.
NACI
The National Aero Club of Ireland (formally the Irish Aero Club) was formed in 1909 and has evolved into an umbrella group representing all air sports in Ireland. Individual air-sport Associations are members of the NACI, whose Executive Committee is made up from officers of the member-Associations. The NACI is recognised as the National Governing Body for all air sports in Ireland by the Irish Sports Council and is an active member of FAI/CIVL. The NACI is a member of Europe Air Sports. The NACI is the mechanism through which the IHPA can talk to statutory bodies like the Irish Sports Council, Europe Air Sports, the Irish Aviation Authority and FAI/CIVL with the weight and support of all the other air-sports.
FAI & CIVL
The Federation Aeronautique Internationale (FAI) is the International Governing Body for all air sports and sanctioned competitions around the world.
The Commission Internationale de Vol Libre (CIVL) is the branch of FAI (called a commission) that deals with Hang Gliding and Paragliding. Through the NACI, CIVL / FAI provides the IHPA with its internationally recognised Safe Pro and Para Pro Standards of Safety and Training, and provides the Pilot Rating Scheme that is employed here in Ireland. CIVL / FAI also provides the IHPA with International Pilot Proficiency Identity (IPPI) cards which (when used with an IHPA Membership card) are accepted by all other countries to document a pilot's level of training and knowledge. CIVL / FAI further provides IHPA pilots with its Sporting Licence, which is required if pilots wish to compete in CIVL / FAI sanctioned international competitions, like the HG and PG Pre-Worlds and World Championships, and receive a World Pilot Ranking.
EAS
Europe Air Sports (EAS) is an association of the European National Aero Clubs and European Air Sports Unions, with the objective to co-ordinate regulatory matters in Europe. It is affiliated to the FAI, the World's Airsports Federation. Developments in European aviation regulation require constant attention and actions for a response or initiative. If unnoticed, unfavourable or even dangerous rules may evolve, hurting air sports and recreational aviation. If properly managed, it may lead to equal opportunities for our community in Europe. Current membership counts the National Aero Clubs of 25 States and the European Gliding and the European Hang & Paragliding Unions, the Microlight Federation as well as PPL/IR Europe. Europe Air Sports represents the interests of some 700,000 sports and recreational airspace users.
EHPU
The European Hang Gliding and Paragliding Union (EHPU) is an independent, self-governing and non-profit umbrella association for national hang gliding and paragliding associations in Europe, which aims to promote and protect hang gliding and paragliding in Europe. The EHPU seeks in particular to consult with all relevant regulatory authorities in Europe, for the benefit of hang gliding and paragliding. It endeavours to cooperate both with the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale (FAI) and with Europe Air sports.
