Great experience

It was a great experience and the crew were professional and friendly. John my pilot was brill. Made me feel very calm and relaxed despite me not liking heights. I certainly would do it again!

Flying like an eagle

Best experience of my life and I have lived 70 years :) will always remember the woman who took the jump off the cliff with me. The owner who talked me to the edge and even the driver of the van that I travelled up to launch place. Thankyou all. I have always watched the hawks that circle around my life sentence block in Kapiti and now I really envy them (although I was not searching for food) just free. Will be back at Wanaka Festival Time. See you then Geraldine
