XC camp

AiR-touch exclusive cross-country week in Kruševo 2027

Organizer: AiR-touch ↗

The exclusive cross-country week is for pilots who already have XC experience and want to take on longer and more demanding routes. Two instructors look after a group of no more than six selected pilots, who apply for the limited places and talk to the organiser by phone before registering. Each day starts with a weather and route briefing; the focus is on XC strategy, advanced thermalling, line choice and reading the clouds, with team flying and in-air coaching on request. Goals include flights to the Greek border and Lake Prespa and larger flatland triangles around Prilep and the peak above the Treskavec monastery. Kruševo is the main site, weather permitting the group also flies at Treskavec, Sliva and Ohrid, and the retrieve follows the pilots along the route. Accommodation in Kruševo in a double room with breakfast, a shared transfer from Skopje airport, local transport, lifts to launch and retrieves are included. The trip runs if the minimum number of participants is reached and can be combined with the preceding XC week into a two-week intensive training.
