Each year, for 8 years, the Fédération Française Aéronautique proposes once a year to the pilots of the affiliated flying clubs to invite their entourage to enjoy a free flight . If you do not know, do not panic, you just have to come and visit the flying club closest to you. The pilots, on the spot, will gladly share with you their passion by making you discover the universe of planes and, why not, a small flight in their company.
In 2014, women are honored with Operation "Des Ailes pour Elles" . The aeronautical world lacks girls in command of its fleet. Yet the women are not left behind and shine on the podiums of aeronautical sports competitions, such as Kathel Boulanger or Aude Lemordant in 2013.
If after the weekend of April 12th and 13th, you like this pilot discovery, you can register as a student pilot in one of these flying clubs and pass your Private Pilot License, PPL-A.
Contrary to popular belief, there is no need to be a genius in mathematics, to have an eagle or to be multi-millionaire to drive. After a medical examination, a theoretical examination and 45 hours minimum flight, of which 25 with an instructor, the sky will belong to you! What if the weather is fine next Saturday? Well, you can leave picnic at the beach by making a cuckoo in the traffic jams on your way back! If it's not chic that!
