BEFORE YOU GO · CAUTIONARY DETAILS
The weather decides, not the booking
A tandem flight goes when the wind at launch is right and not otherwise. Flights are cancelled or held for hours in good conditions elsewhere on the hill — build a spare day into the trip rather than a tight connection out of it.
Weight limits are equipment limits
A wing is certified for a range, and being outside it changes how it flies. This is a specification, not a judgement, and a pilot who waves it through is not doing you a favour.
At launch, you run
The single instruction that matters: when the pilot says go, keep running until your feet leave the ground and do not sit down. Sitting early collapses the wing's airflow at the worst possible moment.
Hands off the lines
Everything above you is doing something. Hold the harness straps you are shown and nothing else, and do not reach for a camera unless it is on a wrist strap.
Fly with a licensed pilot
Ask to see the pilot's licence and the wing's certification. In India this is checked by the state at the site; it is a reasonable thing to ask about and an unreasonable thing to be refused.

Worth it for the view alone. Everything ran to time. Rooms were comfortable and the locations meant we could walk most evenings. Recommended.
