A Milestone Birthday Present

An aerobatic voucher can mark a milestone birthday for someone who wants to try this kind of flying. Check the recipient’s wishes and participation requirements before buying.

Why it suits a round-number birthday

The recipient can choose the flight date after receiving the voucher. If you are unsure about the package, a fixed-value voucher leaves that choice to them.

For a shared visit, compare the couple and group packages and allow time for successive flights.

Three things to check before paying

Weight up to 110 kg, height up to about 195 cm, and no serious cardiovascular condition, epilepsy or pregnancy. At 60 and above, or with any cardiac history, a word with their doctor first is sensible. These limits come from the aircraft and the parachute, so nobody at the airfield can waive them on the day.

The group version

If the birthday involves a gathering, the Friends & Family package puts four people through the full sequence in one day with lunch at the airfield. Larger groups work at roughly 45 minutes per person, so eight to ten fit into a full day. Spectators are free, which matters, because most of the day is spent on the grass watching somebody else.

Timing

The voucher is valid 12 months and the season runs April to October, so a December birthday is flown in spring with nothing lost. Delivery can be scheduled to arrive by email on the day itself. Resist choosing the date for them: weather moves slots, and a gifted fixed date turns a present into an obligation.

Frequently asked questions

What is a good 40th birthday present?

An aerobatic flight in an Extra 300L, from 2,222 PLN, requiring no licence or experience. It is a first rather than another object, and that is what suits a round-number birthday.

Is there an upper age limit for an aerobatic flight?

No fixed limit. Participants over 70, or anybody with a cardiac history, should get a medical opinion before booking.

Can we turn it into a group celebration?

Yes. The Friends and Family package covers four people flying the full sequence in one day with lunch, and larger groups work at roughly 45 minutes per person. Spectators are free.

What if their birthday is in winter?

The voucher is valid twelve months and the season runs April to October, so a December birthday is flown in spring. Delivery can be scheduled to arrive on the day itself.
