FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Most manufacturers recommend a periodic service every year or every 100 flight hours. Under the Paracheck charter, the periodic service is the only intervention that establishes the true overall condition of your wing.
From age 5 (4 for the kids’ flight) and up to 95 kg. No particular fitness required: you just need to be able to run a few metres at take-off.
Weather check every day at 8 pm. If conditions are not optimal, the flight is rescheduled free of charge. Free cancellation up to 72 hours before the flight.
Every intervention comes with a detailed Paracheck report: quantified measurements, wear gauge and recommendations, in full transparency.
Yes, gift vouchers are valid for 12 months and can be personalised. The perfect gift to introduce someone to free flight.
