Frequently asked questions

What's the most intense moment of the flight?
The launch off the Pyrenean ridge is the sharpest spike of adrenaline. You run a few steps, the wing catches the thermal, and the ground drops away in seconds. After that, the glide over Saint-Lary-Soulan is sustained and smooth.
Do you need to be comfortable with heights?
It helps, but most first-timers report that the sensation is closer to floating than falling. Your pilot handles all controls, so your only job is to take in the Pyrenees panorama.
How long are you actually airborne?
The full experience is booked as 1h including briefing, gear-up and transfer to the launch site. Actual flight time varies with thermal conditions on the day.
Is the flight conducted in English?
Yes. The operator speaks Spanish, French and English, so pre-flight safety instructions are fully covered in English.
