An Aerochute training lesson will give you your first lesson in how to fly the Aerochute powered parachute.The Aerochute is one of the easiest, safest and most innovative ways to fly and likely start you off to becoming a pilot who can can enjoy the skies and share it with your family and friends.
Your aerochute experience begins with a pre-flight briefing. Your instructor will explain the aircraft controls, and outline the fundamentals of piloting an aerochute. Then it's out to the runway for pre-flight checks. After the checks have been completed its time to strap in for takeoff.
Once in the air you will enjoy the feeling of flying free through the air and take in the beautiful views of the surrounding areas. You then have the option to take the controls and fly for yourself. You will be shown how to use the power and steering controls. Your instructor will then teach you to do 360 turns, climb and descend, fly straight and level and most importantly how to do a touch and go on the runway!
You will walk away from this experience with the feeling of achievement, excitement and a smile on your face. This lesson could start you on an exciting journey to your Aerochute Pilot Certificate, only 20 hrs is required all under the supervision of a qualified instructor. If you or a family member has ever wanted to fly try this experience and..."Let the Adventure Begin...!"
