An experience he is happy to share with you. Thanks to his good knowledge of human nature and vast experience as a professional pilot, he always knows exactly where the shoe pinches - emphatically, reliably and precisely like clockwork.

"THE VETERAN"
Full-time tandem pilot and flight instructor - veteran of the Allgäu aviation scene - in the air since the 80s

Klaus is a true Allgäu native - humorous, down-to-earth and yet deeply connected to the sky. Since his first attempts at paragliding in the 1980s and his subsequent hang gliding and paragliding training on the Tegelberg, he has spent thousands of hours in the air. As a qualified flight instructor, safety trainer and former flight school director, Klaus knows exactly what is important: trust, experience and the right gut feeling! He has a sure instinct for people and always has a saying up his sleeve that will turn any nervousness into a smile. And Klaus doesn't just take people up in the air, he also leads them on llama treks through the Allgäu - with the same calm and warmth. Anyone who takes off with him knows that they are in the best of hands.

"THE SWISS KNIFE"
Full-time tandem pilot ¡ Pilot since 2008 ¡ Tandem pilot since 2020 ¡ At home in the Swiss Alps

For Markus, the mountains are not just a panorama – they are home. Having grown up in the Swiss Alps, he knows every perspective: from the summit, from the via ferrata, from the narrow path in the valley – and from the air. He has been paragliding for 18 years – with experience, precision, and a keen sense for thermals and timing. As a professional tandem pilot, his path led him to places like Interlaken, one of the most famous paragliding hotspots in the Alps. What brought him to FLY ROYAL Paragliding at Tegelberg? The focus on individual experiences and high quality standards – values he lives by with every flight. With Markus, you don't just take off – you rediscover the mountains.
