Instructional Tandem Flight

With the Tandem Instructional Flight we give you a brief ground introduction to the gear and what to expect in the air. Followed by a 15-30 minute flight. In flight we will have radio communications and will continue the instruction as we fly. We offer 2 options for instructional flights. A 15 minute instructional flight for $150 and a 30 minute instructional flight for $200.

***Qualifications You must be 18 years or older, weigh 300lbs or less, and be in good physical health or confirm with your doctor that you are able to participate in an activity like powered paragliding.***

- Your scheduled appointment time is your arrival time. We will follow up with a confirmation text or cancellation text based on the weather 4-8 hours before your appointment.  Payment is due in full at your arrival.   

-Time Expectations

In the morning, we typically operate one hour before sunrise until about three hours after sunrise.  In the evening, we typically operate two hours before sunset until one hour after sunset. Please plan for two-three hours to complete your Instructional Flight.

-Weather expectations

The morning and evening are typically the most conducive to providing the best weather for instructional flights. We do not control the weather, nor are we meteorologists, but we will do our best to schedule operations during the most favorable conditions.  Weather forecasts are not perfect, however they are the most accurate 4-8 hours before a flight. This is when we will make a decision if we continue with the appointment or we will cancel your appointment and reschedule. In the event of predicted severe weather we may cancel more than 4-8 hours in advance.

-Canceling/Rescheduling

We understand plans change. Feel free to change your appointment up to 24 hours in advance. There will be a link in your texts and emails to reschedule. If you need to reschedule within 24 hours of your appointment, please know there is a $50 cancellation fee. This fee will be charged to the credit card that you provided at checkout.  This credit card ONLY reserves your appointment and will be used in the event of a no-show/cancellation.  Please plan to pay in full on the day of your appointment with a credit card or cash.

-Appropriate Attire

We will be flying in an open cockpit aircraft with about 30 mph winds the entire flight.  Morning flights we typically wear light snow gear as it is well insulated and offers great wind protection. We also wear gloves and a neck buff/gator. Evening flights we wear long pants and a long sleeve shirt.  We do require that you wear closed toe shoes.  We recommend wearing sunglasses/safety glasses during the flight to protect your eyes from flying insects.  We also recommend tying long hair back.

-Camera/Phone Policy

When preparing for the flight, we ask that you leave everything in your pockets on the ground but leave it up to you if you would like to bring your phone for pictures and videos. If you plan to bring it with you on the flight we highly recommend some sort of way to secure it to your hand/wrist with a strap. We are not responsible for dropped phones or any other items. We have complimentary Gopros on selfie sticks that are a little bit easier to operate in flight.  Footage from the flight can be downloaded and transferred to a mobile device before leaving.

We are excited to share our love for Powered Paragliding with you!
