Flying Director had a marvelous time getting this Mary/Bert team ready to soar and flip.

A few times a year, all our Flying Directors gather in the Dojo to refine their approach, experiment , discuss new ideas and share all the skills they picked up along the way.

We're dedicated to the art and craft of flying - and never stop learning and growing our knowledge.

ZFX Flying Symposium 2024. In the continuing effort to remain the best of the best, the week was dedicated to bringing all of the Flying Directors together to share techniques and information, refine procedures and workshop new ideas. New ideas were discussed, drawn, mocked up and tried. Then there was the Great Spike Tape Debate, which will go down in FD History. Of course, at the end of the workshop, William got a Thank You card. The week ended with cold beverages and stories from the road. Get ready world, we’re coming at you with new skills and ideas added to our bag of tricks. 😎
