As an alpinist, I learned how important are the details. Flying is another amazing activity like alpinism, to enjoy it 100% you need to learn how to stay safe. Marco is a great teacher because he doesn't only teach you the rules but why these rules exist, why they are important, and why they work. Having this global understanding of what it means to fly was the most amazing and unexpected part of this program. I'm couldn't be more grateful to Marco for having introduced me to this new world.

Learning to fly with Flumen is, without doubt, the best choice you can take. I felt safe the whole time and it is amazing how Marko is able to give you instructions in the air, over the radio and while flying with you. Marko is super professional and has a passion you can't find elsewhere, not only for flying but also for teaching. He gives a good combination of theory and practice that is important to understand the air and safety. He truly loves what he does and I could not have learned it so fast without him. Huge thanks for all you have taught me. I will keep that in mind forever.
See you in the air soon :-)" Mia Nostrup
