On May 24th, I had booked a motorized hang gliding activity for 2 people, 15 minutes each, with photos and videos in Guadarrama.Review translated from Spanish
When we arrived at the indicated place to carry out the activity, they told us that we were not going to do hang gliding because of the weather, at no time did they call us or communicate with us to change the activity, we found out once we were on the site , at that time they did not give us the possibility to change the day to carry out the activity that they had hired us.
As the activity was carried out in an area far from Madrid, we decided to spend the day in that area, and the weather was the same all day, so they already knew in advance that hang gliding was not going to be done, and yet they did not they told us.
They changed the hang glider for a plane flight, it was supposed to last 15 minutes (what we had contracted) but they barely reached 10 minutes, according to the photos of the takeoff and landing: TAKEOFF: 16:37 LANDING: 16:43 As can be seen, between takeoff and landing, 6 minutes passed, of the 15 that we had contracted; according to the company, the time starts from when the engine is turned on until it is turned off, in this case, let's say that the engine was turned on 2 minutes before takeoff and turned off 2 minutes after landing (taking it high, because they already I assure you that I did not even reach the minute in both cases) in that case the flight instead of 6 minutes would be 10 minutes, being less than the 15 minutes contracted.
Company's response: Good afternoon Daniel, On many occasions the weather is not changeable and it is not possible to notify you in advance, as was your case. We are sorry that they could not carry out the activity in Trike due to the weather, as an alternative they were offered the flight in a small plane. Flight time is counted from engine start, taxi and takeoff to landing and engine shutdown. We have been reviewing the times and his flight was 15 minutes, we have also spoken with the instructor and you did not say anything at the aerodrome on the day of the flight about the time of the activity. A cordial greeting.
Excellent experience and excellent service, we will repeat without a doubt! I recommend it to everyone, thank you very much for everything.Review translated from Spanish

Aeródromo Eduardo Castellanos Villacastin
As you exit the A6, km 81, the Aerodrome is indicated at the roundabout. You just have to follow the signs.
Throughout the Spanish plateau you can carry out various activities, all of them of great cultural, historical and scenic interest, but few as exciting as the one we have prepared for you at Aviators School where we will take you to do it from the heights in our light plane initiation flights of different durations: 15, 20, 30, 45 minutes or, of longer duration, 1 and 2 hours.
The experience will begin from the Eduardo Castellanos de Villacastín Aerodrome, located in Segovia and a few kilometers from Madrid and Ávila. Due to this proximity, you can choose to fly over part of the three provinces with the small plane, always accompanied by one of our pilots who, once stabilized in the air, will give you the opportunity to take the controls. That is, being a pilot for a day. An amazing experience!
Depending on the itinerary chosen, the panoramic views you will enjoy can range from historical buildings (castles, walls...) to beautiful landscapes (natural parks, rivers, forests...) that make up the different mountain ranges and valleys. Furthermore, it will not be a simple ride in our plane. You will end the flight knowing a little more about the world of aviation after a brief theoretical explanation.
On the other hand, and if you feel encouraged after experiencing the sensations that come with being at the controls of an aircraft, we have different aviation courses that will enable you to fly on your own.
It is a bird? Is it a mirage? No! It's you flying on our hang glider! At Aviators School we are aware that you need new challenges, new stimuli that make you feel more alive than ever and there is no doubt that we have specialized in doing so, and in the best way!
Our aviation school is located in Segovia, at the Eduardo Castellanos aerodrome but to make your hang gliding flight even more incredible and unforgettable , we will do the route through Madrid. How are you reading it! Some of the most amazing landscapes of the Community of Madrid under your feet in our motorized hang glider.
Always led by our best pilots, our hang gliding flights are a true delight for the senses. In addition, you can choose between different routes of different duration, from 15 minutes, through 20, 30 and up to 45 minutes maximum.
By having a motor, it is not necessary to do small races or have a specific physical condition, which is why it is a perfect activity both to have fun yourself and to give a gift to someone very special.
I never thought that you could fly hang gliding in Madrid when it is practically unlikely to find any type of aerial sport that can be done in the province. But with us it is possible... and we make it possible in the most genuine way! Give yourself the treat you deserve!

With the help of the Aviator School you can experience what it feels like to fly through the blue skies and feel the freedom while the adrenaline runs through your entire body. Do you dare to try it?
If you didn't know about the existence of these incredible aircraft, here we are to give you a brief explanation about them. It is a hybrid between an airplane and a helicopter that is powered by a propeller. This way, it can take off and land almost vertically and give you stability without having to "accelerate down a runway".
With the Aviator School you can enjoy routes both through nature and through castles and cultural areas of Segovia, Ávila and the surroundings of Madrid on tours of different durations. From 15 to 60 minutes, you can enjoy an unforgettable experience with the help of your professional pilot with years of experience behind him.
In addition, always before starting any flight, the pilot will give you a brief talk of about 30 minutes about the incredible history of these aircraft and will also give you a patch, sticker or t-shirt depending on the season in which you carry out the activity. And let's not forget that all flights are recorded so that you can take home the memory forever.
You can find them at the Eduardo Castellanos airfield, in Villacastín.

If you like heights, flying high and perceiving the tranquility that a flight can give you, at Aviators School you can find everything you need. A flight in a glider where the noise of the engine will not disturb your experience will be all you need to break the monotony.
Being experts in the world of aerial experiences and surrounded by an unparalleled environment such as the Sierra de Guadarrama which includes part of Madrid and Segovia, and also very close to Ávila, two Castilian-Leonese cities declared as World Heritage Sites you will have the opportunity to observe the best panoramic views from a aerial sailboat.
Flights in this type of airplane will take off from the Eduardo Castellanos aerodome in Villacastín. A Segovian municipality that is close to the capital of Madrid and the cities of Segovia and Ávila themselves. Its short distance makes us a great option to enjoy a non-motorized flight.
We offer different flight plans that include a prior talk of about 20 minutes that will be training and regardless of the time you have, you can fly from 15 minutes to 120 minutes. Yeah! Two intense hours of flight flying over the Iberian Peninsula and discovering every detail from a bird's eye view.
From Aviator School, we will be delighted to meet you and demonstrate our great experience in command of a glider. Do you want to be part of an aerial experience with us?
