Based on the experience we have organizing SIV courses in previous years and the positive results after the first and the second SIV for teh season, SKY CAMP team invites you to third edition. It has been proven that all the pilots that have attended an SIV course, have increased knowledge and understanding of their gliders' behavior in flight and a heightened sense and skills for coping in emergency situations. Keeping one's calm in such a situation can make the difference sometimes. Tthis is exactly why we continue offering you our SIV courses. All your flights will be performed in optimal conditions under constant guidance by experienced instructors. We maintain the highest possible safety level. The course consists of ten flights performed above the picturesque Ohrid Lake in Macedonia. Durind these ten flights you will have the opportunity to perform the main safety maneuvers as well as some basic ACRO manoeuvres.

The course is offered in the following formates: 1. For pilots that are occupied during the week - weekend flights (two weekends in a row). 2. For pilots that are free during the week - ten consecutive flights within a few days. What does the course include?
