nirvana > learning to fly >> tandem rides

A tandem gives you the chance to experience a long flight above the beautiful hills and fields, soaring with eagles high above the cliffs. Without any training or experience you can fly like a pro for 10 to 15 minutes. You don't need to be very fit or sporty, depending on the site we can take pretty much anybody!

Tandem flights use a wing large enough to hold two people, a pilot / instructor and a passenger.

Each person has their own harness, which are attached together, with the passenger in front, and the pilot right behind.

Once airborne, the pilot can easily talk to the passenger and explain the controls. If the conditions are right and the passenger is willing, the pilot can turn the controls over to the passenger and let them experience what it is like to fly an un-powered craft.

The length of your flight may vary from a sled run to an extended soaring flight. There is no age limit but minors need to be accompanied by a parent.We can carry passengers from 25 to 95 kilos but we need better launch conditions with the heavier passenger.

Please call to schedule a tandem flight with Nirvana Adventures.
