About Ultralight Flights
This favorite recreational activity rose to popularity during the 70s and 80s. During this era, some would say that Westerners’ and Americans’ interest in aviation peaked. The ultralight ride provided a respite for an affordable, easy – and powered way to soar to new heights.

Your pilot will have veteran credentials to keep you safe. Most would have flown for more than 25 years for example, with specialties in Ultra-Light flying. Most importantly, your instructor will be fully licensed and certified.
