Ultra Light Flight In Nepal

Ultra Light Flight In Nepal

This is one of the nice options to engulf with Nepal’s craggy, verdant and snowcapped mountains. Though this is little an adventurous, there is no other way to save time up with such a nice way looking and traveling down from the sky.

The Craft And The Safety

The available crafts are of plane, and cruise model which are manufactured in Russia and are powered by Rotax 582 engines.

These crafts have got two seats on each and carry one pilot and one passenger in every flight. The operational speed ranges from 50 km/h to 130 km/h. These aircraft can continuously fly for four hours and reach the height of 5,000 meter flying 300 km at a stretch. Their high aerodynamic qualities allow this delta wing aircraft to perform long flights with engine turned off. On the other hand, their unique design includes a ballistic parachute system, which enables the aircraft to land safely during emergencies.

The operations are controlled by Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal, which checks pilots’ proficiency & the condition of the aircraft.

The insurance policy conforms to the rules for the Passenger, Aircraft, Pilot and the third parties, which means we are insured just as other domestic flights.

These ultra light aircrafts are designed to carry passengers safely along with providing both sides open for the best of viewing outside. Everything makes you feel like you are flying like a bird.
