Full description
Have you ever thought about what it feels like to fly a plane?
At Neptune you can find out for yourself: climb aboard an ultra-light aircraft and enjoy a 20, 30 or 40-minute experience - the choice is yours - that goes beyond a simple scenic flight.
The view is spectacular, sure. But the moment that lingers is when you take the wheels off the ground, follow the instructor's directions and begin to feel the plane respond to your movements.
Get ready to become a pilot for a day!
What we will do
The appointment is at the time selected during the booking process at the airfield in Nettuno (RM), on the Latium coast. Here you will meet the instructor, who will welcome you for an initial briefing of about 10-15 minutes: you will be shown the basics of flying, the main manoeuvres and safety rules.
You will get to know the ultralight aircraft you will be flying with: a Tecnam P92 or a Coavio DF 2000, two-seater aircraft equipped with dual controls. Both are designed for precise control, safety, and excellent low-altitude performance, allowing you to understand how attitude, turns, and course management work. Then you take off!
On board the ultralight you will experience an unforgettable adventure between sky and sea: you can choose the duration of the flight - 20, 30 or 40 minutes - depending on how much you want to explore from above.
You will fly over the coast of Neptune and the Latium coastline, with the sea opening up below you and a completely new view. And you will take the controls and try to fly the plane yourself, always with the instructor at your side.
At the end of the experience, you will receive a certificate to remind you that, at least for one day, you have mastered the skies.
Who it is aimed at
The experience is suitable for everyone from the age of 16. Persons under the age of 18 must be accompanied on site by both parents or present a release form (signed by both).
To participate, you must not exceed 150 kg in weight.
Other information
The activity can be booked throughout the year.
Important: this is an individual activity; groups of up to 5 people can attend the briefing together and fly one after the other.
You will be on board the Tecnam P92ultralight or the Coavio DF 2000, two-seater aircraft (apart from the instructor, only you will be on board) equipped with dual controls. These aircraft are stable, reliable and designed precisely to allow even first-time pilots to try out piloting in total safety.
You can take photos and videos during the activity.
