TANDEM PAR AGLIDING
FLIGHT
You will be given a minimum of
20 - 30 minutes air experience
tandem flying with the UK Champion,
(If it is less you will be invited to have a 2nd
flight without charge!). You will shown basic safety elements and once airborne
you can sit back and relax and, following relevant
training take the dual controls if you wish!
As we are not able to exactly
predict the wind or weather, you will be asked to attend at the
start of the day - usually 10.30. You will run through some safety
drills with your instructor, then as soon as the wind allows, you
will take to the air. With the vagaries of British weather we ask
that you keep the whole day free - as late as 6pm - but would hope
to have your flight underway before lunchtime.
