**Free Flight Course: Thermal Flight Performance**
In this course, we aim to convey our passion for free flight and provide you with the tools necessary to maximize your performance in thermal conditions. If you have ever felt frustrated by being the first to land while others skim the clouds, or if you have a hard time moving out of service thermals, this course is for you.
Our approach is focused on giving you the confidence to fly, while maintaining the same safety you experience in your local area. We fly with you and are with you every step of the way, sharing our practical knowledge.
Guided by local pilots and residents of the valley, with more than 30 years of experience, you will learn to interpret and make the most of the local operation of the valley. This will allow you to enjoy a more enriching and efficient flight experience. We look forward to seeing you!
