- What to bring:
- Casual clothing is suggested and closed toed shoes (sneakers/joggers/walking shoes) are a good idea as we sometimes launch and land in a paddock with long grass, which can be wet. It is no colder up in the air than it is when you walk out of your front door, so just wear what you are warm and comfortable in. Layers are a good idea as it gets warmer as the morning proceeds. Don’t forget your sunglasses, camera (reliable batteries) and a hat if needed.
