Five members from the flying team of Shenyang Aerospace University obtained air sports pilot (paraglider) licenses issued by the Aero Sports Federation of China this July and became qualified paraglider A-class pilots.
In China, there are less than 10,000 paragliders with certificates.
Qin Shaorui, a member from the team, said: "When flying through the mountains for the first time with the paraglider, I was very excited but calm. I felt that I was integrated with nature, just like feeling the spring breeze across my face."
