UK NOTAM intelligence for paraglider pilots โ built by a pilot, for pilots.
๐ช Open FlyBrief NOTAMs About the projectI'm a paragliding pilot based in the UK. I fly XC, vol biv, solo and dual โ chasing thermals at home and abroad whenever the forecast plays ball.
My current solo setup is an Advance Lightness 4 harness with an Ozone Lyght or AirDesign Volt 5 wing. For tandems I carry whatever the passenger demands and the hill allows.
Cross-country flying and multi-day hike, fly & camp trips โ lightweight kit, big skies, and sleeping under the stars.
Regular trips to flying destinations across Europe and beyond โ always chasing good air and new sites.
Sharing the joy of paragliding with passengers. There's nothing quite like someone's first flight.
When the weather's rubbish I build tools โ FlyBrief started as a personal itch to scratch and grew from there.
Standard NOTAM feeds are built for GA pilots โ full of runway closures, ILS outages and taxiway works that mean nothing to a paraglider. FlyBrief strips all of that out, colour-codes what's left by hazard type, and delivers a clean OpenAir file ready to load into Oudie, SkyDemon, or XCTrack.
Filtered, colour-coded airspace for free-flight pilots. Updated three times daily. Load directly into your instrument.
Danger areas, BVLOS drone corridors, kite flying, tethered balloons, laser displays, parachute drops and military exercises โ all kept. Aerodrome noise, comms outages and chart amendments โ all removed. Read more about how it works โ
