Imagine test flying a new glider under expert guidance in scenery like this...

We know how difficult it can be to thoroughly try out a new glider given the constraints of the UK weather.
We also understand that a glider that may feel comfortable on your local hill in soaring conditions may become another beast entirely during a trip overseas in thermic conditions.

We have joined forces with AXIS UK team pilot Kelly Farina to provide an opportunity for pilots wanting to test fly an AXIS glider to do so in the beautiful Ziller valley.

We believe this offers an excellent opportunity to fly a new glider under the guidance of an experienced alpine guide in a wide variety of conditions, and allows you to assess a potential purchase in what may be a more challenging environment.
