Have his wings clipped , many will disagree but for its own safety I would do it .
Then to compensate for less flying give him lots of branches and toys to climb on .

I agree with Deb a once off wing clip while you are doing the training will keep him under control, when the feathers grow back then he will have learnt better behaviour and hopefully the problem won't reoccur.

Deb,
His wings are clipped I bought him with his wings clipped but he can still fly how can I train him to stop it?. As it is getting really anoying.

His wings arent clipped preperly or they have grown back .
A bird with correctly clipped wings can still land without smashing into the ground but cannot get height or much distance .
