i was there late 2023, but i dont remember seeing a large flag or flag pole. Although I went up by bus rather than the lift maybe thats why?

this year i managed to reach around 2985m. You have often the best climb in the east from the starting place at 1900m. In the valley between the start at 1900m and the next hill in the east. And of course.. a lot of luck. Wtih this altitude we thought about flying to fethiye, but our flight home was the same day and maybe even with that altidute it wasn't possible (??)

Great video, but PLEEEEEASE get yourself a simple bungee cord to help you get into the harness without letting go of the brakes a second after every launch. You're an accident waiting to happen. People already died at Babadag because of similar stupidity.

Hi fantastic video thanks ....sorry if I missed this info ... newbie questions ...do you take your wing and harness on the plane ...my harness is quite chunky with its bump protection or do you/ can you hire wing harness there and lastly I see the landings were always the same direction down the beach is the wind direction generally the same most days at the point of landing Many thanks mark

Very informative and beautiful video. I have been to Babadag many times, mostly in October. It's nice to see another pilot's impressions. And then so well prepared. I was also there in May and found the thermals more rewarding. I didn't manage more than 2750m. Anyway, every flight there is an experience. Thank you and greetings from Germany.

Really informative video before going to oludeniz. 4th time there 1st with cable car operating. Just a little update. October 22 .bus ride 13tlra cable car 130tlra. There was a last flight time wind changed direction on us and had to move from 1700mtrs to 1800mtrs and told if we don't get off in next 5min thats it .

Nice video. Just got back from oludeniz. Cable car cost 130tl if top cable car from 1700mtr to 1900mtr isn't full enough free transit buses would ferry you to the top. There is also a last take off time if delayed on take off .

Hi Bill Take the igc and turn it into a klm. The latter file is used by Google Earth so import into that and look at the track log. Produce an angle you are happy with it and take a still. The still is used in whatever software you use for video editing; I use Da Vinci Resolve. Once in your video editor annotations and animations can be added to point out specific areas or information. Hope that helps.

Hi Bill, They were 30TL for ride up whether by cable or tandem bus and 60TL for the launch. That was in April, it would not surprise me if it went up 5-10TL each before October. I am also going in October; first couple of weeks so may see you there. :))

Hi Thank you for the comments and I’m glad that you enjoyed the video. The thing that we fly in these videos is a Paraglider. If anything goes wrong with that we have a parachute which is stored in reserve under the seat of the pilot or sometimes in front of them. That will be used in any emergency. Hope that helps😊

Nice video, cheers. I did 2 siv's with Jockey, Sept/Oct 2020 and am returning this October for some ad hoc flying. Interesting to see the teleferik now in action and the new system for paying, thank you. We were also told to register on that website at the time but in practice just had to show our licenses and register at the pay station on the road up on first flight then just a show of licence and sign in briefly on subsequent flights. I'll check this system out, cheers again.

That can vary considerably from talking to other pilots. I never got any response at all from my first attempt and it took about two hours on my second. Some have mentioned several days. The best advise I can give is to submit well before you get out there. If you don't hear within a day, submit again or contact them by email.

My last video there was in April/May and I only ;lost one day due to poor weather.

I have seen your videos of pilots' information at Oludenise, very helpful. As I will be there next week, I gather you to use the App and generate a QR code for each flight and close it when you land. When you pay for your ticket you show them your code and they give you one or two tickets? Where and how do you use those tickets at the entry or at the top? Sorry if these are dumb questions but it would be good to understand. Thanks for any help
@Frank2742 жыл бұрын
@Christopher miller Not dumb questions at all, best to get it right before you go. At the Teleferik (cable car), you will get one or to tickets dependent on how you intend to get to launch. If you intend to use the Teleferik you need a ticket for that, which gets you through the turnstile and onto the Teleferik. You also need one for launch. If you are going up by one of the mini buses (for tandem & solo pilots) you only need one ticket for launch since you will have paid for the mini bus ride. The launch ticket gets you through the turnstile for whichever launch you will be using on the mountain. Hope that helps, if not shout out again.
