Slovenia XC course

Improve your flying skills and knowledge and explore the sky with us! Our XC courses are primarily designed for pilots already achieving flights in the range up to 30k wishing to increase their range of skills, distances flown and their understanding of the sky.

 

HOW IT GOES:

The course will start with our presentation: "How to improve in cross-country flying?" We will analyze together what we gain and need to improve in the next days. We will analyze and check forecast and set the group and individual plans. Then we will go together exploring the sky and new horizons and improve our skills. After flying we will analyze the flights (with support of Seeyou program).

 

WHERE:

We will fly in different flying regions in Slovenia, mostly in Tolmin (Julian Alps), Kranj (Karavanke), Lijak and others.
