No airplane required! Put on a flight suit, helmet and goggles. After an introductory class fall face-down in to a padded tunnel of wind! The wind will propel you up and you will be “flying” around the tunnel. You will have two “flights” with the second flight you could be flying 15 feet above the ground! No parachute, just the wind keeping you aloft! If you have any shoulder injuries this tour is not for you! Closed toed shoes are required, and of course you cannot bring your dog in the tunnel! This tour will have a lot of waiting time but is well worth it for any adrenaline junkie! Food is not provided on this tour.

Several times it was burned down and rebuilt.
