Details
Dear adrenaline junky, this one's for you! This 15 min flight will fill those looking for quality over quantity—lots of thrills, lots of sensations, lots of “wow!”. One does not come across the opportunity of rubbing shoulders with the Mont Blanc everyday, so don’t miss your chance.
Tour programme- Meeting and Preparation:Our school in Chamonix is our meeting point. After checking you are properly dressed for the outing, we will jump aboard our shuttle to the gondola lift. Please bring money to pay the cable car enabling us to reach the take-off place.
- Start and Flight:
On site, we will make sure you know the safety instructions and will give you the right equipment (harness and helmet). The flight will last 15 min and will be intense in aerobatic manoeuvres and sensations. Our best pilots will be accompanying you, ensuring that you’ll finish your session with only one wish: going up there again! The landing area is 50 m away from the school so we will be back where we started.
Once the booking is accepted, please confirm the schedule with the school and inform them of your weight.
Note that the flight is sometimes done from Planpraz when the conditions are not optimal in Plan de l'Aiguille.

Awesome flight with lots of sensations for those who like it. Indeed I think that the classic flight can perhaps give a taste of too little for those stingy with feelings;)
Great instructor and wonderful views;)
I highly recommend.
