your instructor, and improve your pilot skills, while offering you substantial

ParaToys captures the essence of what it's like to be a member of that community and experience a universal friendship among pilots. For those who were there, and for those who weren't, ParaToys serves as a record of a special time when a group of freedom flyers came together to celebrate something truly amazing.
