Description

Looking for pure thrills? Climb aboard a multi-axis microlight, a small light aircraft flown with classic controls (stick and rudder), for a first flying experience accessible to all. At Meaux-Esbly Airport, 45 minutes from Paris, France ULM opens the doors to this aerial sport through an introductory flight supervised by a certified DGAC instructor. The multiaxis is piloted like a conventional aircraft, with a stick and rudder pedals that allow you to control the aircraft's three axes (pitch, roll, and yaw). It is an agile machine with a reassuring closed cockpit, ideal for a first introduction to aerial piloting with complete confidence. How does your introductory flight work? Upon arrival, your instructor will introduce you to the aircraft, the safety rules, and the flight procedure during a briefing on the ground. You are fitted with a helmet with an intercom, which allows you to communicate with your instructor throughout the flight. Once in the air, your instructor first takes the controls for takeoff and then gradually lets you participate in the piloting, in complete safety: you feel the aircraft's response to the stick and the rudder pedals, and you can fly under their supervision. You fly over the Seine-et-Marne countryside, its villages, fields, and waterways, with great visibility from the cockpit. Back on the ground, a debriefing concludes the experience: an opportunity to reflect on the sensations you experienced and to ask your final questions. Choice of three flight durations 20 minutes: an introduction to flying, ideal for experiencing the sensations. 30 minutes: a more comprehensive flight, with more time at the controls. 40 minutes: the most immersive experience, to fully enjoy the flying and the landscape. Why should you choose this introductory flight? Supervision by a certified DGAC instructor, facility approved by the DGAC. No previous flying experience required: suitable for complete beginners. Tandem flight: your instructor maintains control of safety at all times. An experience to give as a gift or to treat yourself to, for a desire for adventure or a taste for the great outdoors. Convenient location, very close to Paris. Whether you're an aviation enthusiast, a thrill seeker, or simply curious to discover flying at the controls of a real light aircraft, this introductory flight in a multi-axis microlight is an unforgettable experience that everyone should try at least once.
