Plan description

You will fly from a height of 360m in a two-seater with an instructor. The flight time is about 5 minutes, and each person takes about 90 minutes, and you will take turns flying. There is only one instructor, so there is a limit of 5 people per day, with one person per slot. For example, if there are two or more consecutive slots available, we cannot accept your participation. People who weigh over 80kg cannot participate. (Women weigh 70kg) We will weigh you on the day, so if you are over the limit, your participation will be canceled. *The error is within 1kg.

Anyone can experience flying right away because they fly with an instructor.

With simple explanations and practice, children and the elderly can immediately experience flying. The head is 360m, the flight distance is 1800m, the flight time is about 5 minutes depending on the wind and weight, and the time required is about 90 minutes per person. (For 2 people, fly one by one for about 3 hours)

Matters require attention	Since this sport is heavily dependent on weather conditions, we cannot guarantee whether or not you will be able to fly, or the duration of the flight. Although there have been no accidents during trial flights since the school opened, please understand that as an outdoor sport, there is a risk of accident just like with other sports, and participate at your own risk.

If multiple people are participating, we will not be able to accept your request if there are not enough consecutive slots available. (One person per slot) As we also operate an automated reception system, your request may be filled up even while you are making a request. Since we fly during the day, we will respond to your request in the evening.
