OASE Aufbaukurs: first high flights towards the A licence

Organizer: OASE Flugschule ↗

The Aufbaukurs is the second stage of OASE Flugschule's training for the German A licence. After the basic course, students move from the training slope to higher launches in the Oberallgäu and, with continuous radio guidance, complete at least fifteen first alpine high flights. They practise landing approaches and the first manoeuvres required by the DHV syllabus: pitch and roll control, figure-of-eight turns and big ears. A simulator is used to practise throwing the reserve parachute, and the complete A-licence theory is finished, so the high-flight course can concentrate on flying. If needed, a few short refresher flights revisit the basic-course skills first. Rental equipment, launch and landing fees, liability insurance and local transfers are included; lift tickets, accommodation, meals and DHV exam fees are extra. The high-flight course with the exam follows.
