About me

My husband and I are hang gliding pilots in beautiful British Columbia, Canada.

Hang gliding and paragliding is a spirit freeing sport, for most of us it’s a lifestyle. But it comes with its own perils. For me, safety is a key factor for enjoyable flights. I use a flight log to refresh my knowledge in the beginning of the season, make some notes, plan flying trips, gather information about new sites, etc.

As a web developer and a pilot, I decided to combine my two passions and create an online application to make our flying experience even more pleasurable. I hope you will enjoy using Koifly as much as we do!
