Frequently asked questions

What's the most intense moment of the flight?
The launch from the cliffs above Capo Calavà is the sharpest spike in adrenaline: you go from standing still to airborne in a few running steps, with the Tyrrhenian Sea opening up directly below you.
Do you need to be afraid of heights to enjoy this?
A degree of vertigo is normal at launch. Once you're gliding, most first-timers report the sensation shifts quickly from fear to exhilaration. The pilot handles all controls throughout the flight.
How long are you actually in the air?
The full session runs 2h, which includes ground briefing and gearing up. Actual airtime depends on thermal conditions on the day, so ask your pilot at the meeting point for the expected flight window.
What is the meeting point and how early should you arrive?
Meet at Parking Capo Calavà, Contrada Calavà, 98063 Calavà ME. Arrive at least 15 minutes early so the briefing stays on schedule.
