What we will do
The meeting is at the 'Campo Volo Isolone' base in San Rocco al Porto, in the province of Lodi. Here we will prepare the aircraft together, performing all external safety and engine checks.
Once the pre-flight preparation is complete, we will climb aboard for ignition and take-off, in which you will take part as co-pilot with a check list to follow.
After take-off, we will perform a tour of the field, which is useful for checking the weather and the proper functioning of the aircraft. Afterwards, we will begin the actual flight over the Po, following its bends and making turns and passes with the rules of visual flight (VFR), until we reach an altitude of approximately 600 metres .
The actual duration of the flight is about 30/40 minutes, while the total activity of the experience (which includes briefing and pre-flight preparation) is about 1.5 hours.
