Irshad is one of the pilots we helped in Pakistan.

By sending a significant shipment of equipment to the Pakistan Hangliding and Paragliding Association (PHPA) in early 2025, we enabled pilots like Irshad to access equipment that has been serviced and is suited to their skill level.

His story demonstrates the critical need for safe and verified equipment.

Sir, thanking you a thousand times over would still be insufficient. You have viewed my passion with esteem and respect, and this is a tremendous honor for me. I didn’t own a paraglider before. I weigh 76 kg, while I was flying with a wing designed for a load of 55 to 75 kg, which posed a real danger to my life. But out of passion, I accepted this risk nonetheless. Thanks to your great generosity, I received the flying equipment you sent me. I have sent you a list of this equipment in the form of photos. I am at a loss for words to express my gratitude. May Almighty Allah grant you a long life filled with health, happiness, and prosperity, and may He make your goodness a source of continuous reward. With all my respect, Irshad Hussain, Pakistan
