Flights usually launch more than 200 meters above sea level and may reach 350 meters. Your pilot, including Chris on some flights, handles the flight while you enjoy beaches, cliffs, birds, and Las Palmas from the air. Aerobatics are optional.

“This was such a good experience. Chris was so Friendly and had lot of experience in this field. They can’t say the exactly time and place beforehand because it all depends on the weather and wind direction,… so you have to wait untill the day. What is actually understandable. You should try this once in a lifetime. ✌🏼”
