Full description
Fly over the Piacentine Valleys aboard an ultralight and discover the thrill of flying over marvellous landscapes in the position of co-pilot.
The views are stunning at any time of day, but for an even more suggestive experience the best time to fly is shortly before dawn and shortly after sunset.
If you can't resist the thrill of flying and aerial views, this experience is for you! You will be in the company of an experienced pilot who will show you the secrets of flying an aircraft.
What we will do
The meeting with the pilot will take place at the Isolone airfield in San Rocco al Porto(LO). After a 20-minute pre-flight briefing, you will board the aircraft, sit next to the pilot, and be ready to take off.
During the flight, thanks to the panoramic cabin, the view will range from the Piacentine Valleys to the Trebbia Valley, in a scenario immersed in the greenApennines of Piacenza. You will be able to admire the lower Po Valley crossed by the Po and the hills of San Colombano al Lambro populated by vineyards and cultivated fields, arranged to form surprising geometries.
If you wish - and if the pilot agrees after assessing all the conditions - you will be able to take the controls of the ultralight and experience the thrilling sensation of piloting an aircraft.
The duration of the flight may vary from 30 to 45 minutes (depending on conditions). A debriefing of about 20 minutes on the sensations experienced during the flight will follow the return to base. The total duration of the activity is approximately 1½ hours.
