Frequently asked questions

What's the most intense moment of the flight?
The launch off the mountain ridge is the sharpest adrenaline spike. You go from standing still to full airspeed in seconds, with the valley floor dropping away beneath you. After that, the thermal glide is smoother but the exposure to open alpine air stays constant throughout the 1.5h to 2h flight.
Do you need any prior experience to fly?
No. The physicalLevel for this tour is listed as 'Everybody welcome', meaning FlyTandem's certified pilot handles all controls. You are a passenger strapped into a tandem harness the entire time.
Is this a winter-specific flight, and does snow affect the experience?
Yes, the tour title specifies a classic winter tandem flight. Flying over snow-covered peaks and the Großarltal valley gives you a visual contrast you won't get in summer. Wind and visibility conditions still dictate whether the flight goes ahead on any given day.
What languages does the pilot speak during the flight?
The pilot speaks both German and English, so pre-flight safety instructions and in-air communication are covered in either language.
