Questions

Didn't find your answer? Contact us.

Do I need experience to fly in an ultralight?

No. On discovery and scenic flights an experienced pilot flies the aircraft, and you can take the controls for a few minutes if you want to.

Is ultralight flying safe?

Modern ultralights are built to demanding standards and many carry a ballistic parachute. We only fly in suitable weather, with trained pilots, in aircraft maintained to the manufacturer's instructions.

How do I become an ultralight pilot?

Start with a discovery flight, then join the pilot training course: ground school, dual instruction and solo flying, with support until you are ready for the licence exam.

How much does a scenic flight cost?

Prices depend on the flight, its length and the date, and are quoted on request. Send the booking form or a WhatsApp message and we will reply with a price and available times.

Do you maintain other aircraft too?

Yes. We service, inspect and repair a wide range of light and ultralight aircraft, including Rotax engine work and parts supply.
