Introduction to microlight piloting in Nîmes (30)

Activity description :

Come and enjoy the magnificent landscapes of the Gard region on a Multiaxis or Pendular microlight flight! Your pilot Willem will show you the region and its most emblematic sites from the air.

The Gard: a must for ultralight pilots

Departing from Nîmes, on this flight you'll be able to admire the magnificent Languedoc region, its breathtaking landscapes and iconic sites in the Gard. In particular, you'll be able to admire Nîmes from the sky, as well as the famous Pont du Gard.

Course of the initiation :

• Welcome at the airfield: 15-minute briefing, introduction to the basics of flying and pre-flight visit to see all the important flying points.
• Baptism of the air (45 minutes) to familiarize yourself with the microlight.
• Take control of the aircraft: vertical and horizontal trajectory and speed changes.
• Soft landing and debriefing with the instructor pilot.

Several microlights are available:

• Multi-axis ULM : gives you a panoramic view of the surrounding countryside, while being protected by the fuselage. With a relatively low flight speed, you can really enjoy the view.
• Pendular ultralight: a more intense experience, with a speed of 80 km/h "nose to the wind", just like a motorcycle. More accessible in spring/summer.

An introduction to microlight piloting is ideal for those who love adrenalin and wide-open spaces! It's also the ideal gift for an EVG/EVJF or any other occasion.
