A flight that places the landscape between the city, the fjord and the coast in a larger space.

Sightseeing flight
The flight
From the start on the water, the sightseeing flight takes you over the Flensburg Fjord and along the coastal landscape - from the water into the air and back again.
The take-off run begins on the water. The aircraft turns into the wind and picks up speed.
As the speed increases, the aircraft lifts out of the water until the wing carries and the fjord remains below you.
From the water to the air
From the air, the structure of the landscape becomes recognizable in all its vastness – fjord, coastlines, water surfaces and the transitions between land and sea.
The sightseeing flight follows the course of the fjord and shows the region from a calm perspective from above.
The landing takes place on the water again – a transition back to the movement of the surface.
The region
FLENSBURG FJORD AND COASTAL LANDSCAPE
The Flensburg Fjord combines the city, coast and open water areas in a landscape that is particularly clear from the air.
From the air, you can see how shorelines, bays, fjords and adjacent land areas connect with each other.
The sightseeing flight in a seaplane shows this structure from a perspective that cannot be experienced from the ground.
Course of training
The process on the water
Before the flight, there is a short briefing on the water in which the most important procedures are explained.
The aircraft then moves from the jetty over the water surface to the take-off position. The take-off does not take place from a fixed runway, but along an open water surface, depending on the wind and conditions.
As the speed increases, the aircraft lifts out of the water and goes into a circular flight. After landing on the water, it is maneuvered back to the jetty.
The procedure on the water depends on wind and conditions and can change slightly in individual cases.
Airplane
The seaplane
The sightseeing flight is operated with a Cessna 172P Amphibian which is specially equipped for operation on water.
The aircraft is equipped with Wipaire 2350 floats, which enable take-offs and landings on both water surfaces and hard runways.
The aircraft is powered by a 180 hp engine, which enables a smooth and stable flight over the coastal landscape.
The design allows a good all-round view, so that the fjord, shorelines and water surfaces are clearly visible from the air.

The seaplane used offers space for up to two people. Due to the operational conditions, the total weight of the passengers is limited to 180 kg.
The flight over water is generally calm, as there is less thermal movement over water than over land.
