    This was great to do! There is a relaxed atmosphere at the airport, along with the other hang gliders . You get the necessary explanation, but the emphasis is on flying: your learn T a bit on the floor, but especially in the air. You are pulled up by a plane, and I really felt free as a bird as soon as the towing pain was disconnected. The lessons of Heleen are tailor -made, so my personal situation was taken into account. Heleen is a pleasant, relaxed teacher and pays attention to details. If you want to experience once to fly or consider doing an extensive course, then this introductory course is really recommended.

    On April 6, 2025, I took the introductory course with my son. I'd been thinking about it for a long time and finally took the plunge. Two flights . It was amazing to be towed up by Rinus on his DragonFly and then soar like a bird. Heleen knows what she's talking about, is 100% professional, and understands that you might be a little nervous. She gives you the peace of mind and confidence that you're doing it safely. If I were to recommend anyone, it would be this team. Absolutely fantastic!
    Thanks so much for this experience!

    Incredible experience. Heleen Has Been Great From Start to Finish with Her Communication and Coordination Ahead of the Day and then also in managing to get us in the air for 2 flights on a day where the wind was Quite temperament. Flying was priceless, the feeling was incredible and learning some of the technique with the simulator helped when we cool steering a go duration our second flight.
