This flight experience will take you to heights of 3,000 - 4,000 feet above Colorado earlier in the day (8:00am) prior to thermal development. You will experience views of the famous Pikes Peak, the Colorado/New Mexico border, southern Sangre de Cristo Mountains, and 100's of miles of the Front Range. This flight experience is a great option for the novice passenger unsure of what to expect while soaring. This flight has a duration of 20 to 30 minutes. Each of these flights is $200.00.
If you, a friend, or a family member are looking for a flight to see what soaring is all about - you're in the right place! Black Forest Soaring is known around the world for it's exceptional atmospheric conditions that allow glider pilots to travel 1,000+ kilometers in one flight! These flights typically begin later in the day (3:00pm) when lifting conditions are at their peak. In a typical flight, your glider pilot will release about 1,500-2,000 feet above Colorado and use the Earth's energy to quickly climb one mile above Colorado or more. The Ultimate Soaring Flight Experience can be a turbulent but fun ride with an abundance of tight turns while thermalling. Depending on the day, the passenger and pilot will be outfitted with supplemental oxygen. After this approximately 60-minute flight, the pilot will safely return to the airport and the passenger will better understand the addictive sport of soaring! Each of these flights are $475.00.
