Fly with
complete freedom.

Not ready for the 50 flights of the full licence? The Freedom Pack gives you 30 supervised flights with our SHV instructors and the theory, at your own pace. Your intro, once already settled, is deducted from the course price — and if you buy your new gear from us, you get CHF 300 off your gear invoice (separate; it does not reduce the course price).

One question, two answers.

Two things matter: whether you've already done your intro, and whether you buy your gear from us.

🪂
Have you already done your intro?
First steps + first flight already settled separately? They're deducted from your Freedom Pack. And if you buy your new gear from the school, you get CHF 300 off your gear invoice — a separate discount that does not change the course price.

from 1,860 CHF
🪂
Without buying gear from us?
Keep your own gear or buy it elsewhere. We provide the gear for your first 15 flights, then you fly with your own kit — with no CHF 300 discount.
→ Freedom Pack · gear not included
from — 30 flights + intro included
from 2,380 CHF

30 supervised flights, intro already settled.

The same Freedom Pack either way: 30 supervised flights and theory included. The difference is your intro (already settled or not) and your gear — new from us (−CHF 300 on the gear invoice) or your own.

👉 This CHF 2,380 subtotal includes stages 01 and 02 (CHF 520 of intro). If yours is already settled separately, you deduct it → your Freedom Pack comes down to CHF 1,860. And if you also buy your new gear from the school, take off another CHF 300.

The maths, no detours.

The Freedom Pack deducts your CHF 520 intro since it's settled separately. The CHF 300 discount on new gear is a separate bonus, on top, if you buy it from the school.

We've got the answers.

How long is my package valid for?
Your package can be used within 12 months of invoicing. You progress at your own pace, weekday or weekend, and the school works around your availability.
Is the intro included in the Freedom Pack?
Yes. The intro (first steps + first flight, CHF 520) is now included in the Freedom Pack, along with the 30 supervised flights, the gear for your first 15 flights and the theory. If you've already done it as a taster, it's deducted from your pack: it comes down to CHF 1,860 (2,380 − 520) instead of CHF 2,380.
How do I get the CHF 300 discount?
By buying your new gear (wing + harness + reserve) from the school, on top of your training: you then get CHF 300 off your gear invoice, independently of your training. The course price does not change: it stays CHF 2,380 if you haven't done your intro yet, or CHF 1,860 if it's already settled. The −CHF 300 comes off your gear invoice, not the course. If you kit out elsewhere, no gear discount.
What happens after my 30 flights?
It's up to you: carry on your training with us to the 50 flights of the full licence (we deduct what you've already paid — nothing is lost), keep flying with us at CHF 30 / flight, or continue your flights at another school — subject to conditions. Your progress is recognised and travels with you.
If the weather cancels the session, do I lose my flight?
No — any cancellation due to poor weather is postponed free of charge. You can change a date up to 7 days before the activity.
Can I switch to the full licence along the way?
Yes. If you decide to go all the way to the licence, we adjust your training towards the 50-flight package and deduct the flights and services already paid for within your Freedom Pack.
Is the school gear suited to me?
Yes — we use EN/LTF-certified, school-grade gear, perfectly suited to a beginner's progression. That's exactly why we chose it: we use it every day in real conditions before ever offering it to you.
What insurance do I need?
For the course: a non-occupational accident policy that covers free flight. To fly with your own gear after the course: free-flight liability insurance + a valid FSVL membership number.
How do I pay?
Cash, Twint, or a gift voucher online (card payment). Payments are made before the activity. Specific arrangements are possible for longer courses.
What is the minimum age to start?
From age 14 for the solo licence course. From age 6 for tandem discovery flights (with written consent from a parent or legal guardian).

In short

The Freedom Pack · 30-flight course costs CHF 2,380, intro included. If you've already settled your intro separately (CHF 250 first steps + CHF 270 first-flight prep = CHF 520), then CHF 1,860 of course remains to pay (2,380 − 520).

If you also buy your new gear from the school, you get CHF 300 off your gear invoice — this discount does not reduce the course price. The course and the gear are two separate invoices.

So: intro already paid + gear bought from the school → CHF 1,860 for the course, plus your gear invoice reduced by CHF 300.
