Fly Safe SIV course on Lake Annecy
Fly Safe Annecy
A two- or three-day SIV course by Fly Safe over Lake Annecy, launching from Col de la Forclaz (1,240 m) and landing by the lake, giving about 800 metres of height for exercises over the water. On the evening before the course a compulsory meeting in the classroom in Doussard covers each pilot's expectations, an equipment check including reserve extraction, and the issue of radios, earpieces and life jackets. An instructor in the rescue boat guides the pilot by radio throughout the flight, and a starter assists at launch. All exercises are filmed; debriefs take place at the landing field between flights and daily in the classroom, and pilots download their videos online. The course is for improving piloting, testing your reserve, regaining trust in your flying after an incident, getting to know a new glider or starting aerobatics. There are up to three flights a day, groups are limited to eight pilots, and three-day courses have Friday as a compulsory reserve day.
