Panoramic glider flight - Gap-Tallard (05) Southern Alps

"Free" flight's big brother, gliding is here in its region of choice. South Alps' site is indeed a key venue and a worldwide reference for glider enthusiats. This first flight is the best way to discover the perfect mix between flying, sliding and the art of composing with the air's mysteries.         

You will discover gliding aboard the latest version of gliders, best suited to leasure activites: the motorglider or "independent glider" (with this aircraft, no need for a tow-plane !). This high-tech two-seater aircraft has an out-of-the-ordinary comfort, and garanties a friendly atmosphere once aboard. After using its own engine to reach high moutain peaks, we cut everything off, resulting in a total silence and the start of the complete gliding, you then only have to contemplate the extraordinary performances of this aircraft until landing.              

We recommend this aircraft for people susceptible to motion sickness.
