Our Story

The Tech department of Flight-1 was born from a passion to redefine what’s possible in parachute training and canopy flight technology. Our journey began with visionary engineers and experts who wanted to create products that would push the boundaries of safety, precision, and performance in both military and civilian arenas. From initial concepts sketched in a garage to industry-leading systems developed with input from those in the field, Flight-1 Tech is driven by a mission to equip canopy pilots with tools that make training as effective for real-world experience.

Collaborating with pioneers like William Neger, who introduced groundbreaking technologies such as the PD laser table, and our own Ian Bobo, founder of Flight-1, we continue to blend innovation with hands-on expertise to meet the ever-evolving demands of parachuting and canopy flight. Each product, from the S1M to the PLA landing assistance tool and the A2A comms system, embodies our commitment to excellence, designed to set new standards in training and operational effectiveness.

As we look to the future, Flight-1 Tech remains dedicated to equipping military personnel and sports jumpers alike with cutting-edge solutions. We don’t just build products; we build ecosystems of support, ensuring that every tool is backed by the highest standards of training and education. Our goal is simple yet ambitious: to lead the evolution of parachute technology and canopy flight, enabling our clients to train, operate, and perform at their very best.
