Event Concept: The members of the PMA provide their products free of costs to pilots for test flying.
For this purpose the flying site in Kössen is ideal because:
* The flying site has a perfect infrastructure
* The flying school Kössen GmbH will prepare an ideal neutral stage for all participating brands to present their products.
* The north facing mountain slope is known for a soft convergence and mild thermals
* It is also known as a most popular and safe flying site
* It has a large landing field (3 ha) with a "Fliegerbar"
* It is probably the flying site with the most flyable days per year in the Northern Alps
* 4 days seem to be a long enough period to allow all pilots to intensively test all products they want to test.
Conditions for pilots to test a glider: The pilot must prove by signature that he holds the appropriate flying license and also that he has received briefing about the flying site and the special landing approach.
To make sure that the paraglider you wish to test fly is reserved for you, please contact the manufacturer to make a reservation.
