Immortalize your message for eternity in a GPS trace
To book, reach out to fly@above.sk with the What and When, we'll figure out the How.
Above is a heart, during and over the Pride Parade in Bratislava.
Tracing requires hours of planning, but all that will be asked of you is to cover the costs of the flight itself. You can be in the plane or on the ground and coordinate with the captain via text (only yes/no responses), it's up to you, the price is the same and according to prices.above.sk
We can write words, drawings, or anything else! The bigger it is, the more accurate the maneuvering. The heart above involved a sequence of tight maneuvers so the accuracy is not great, but it can be cheaper and easier to see from the ground.
The message is only visible from the ground if the observer "traces" the path of the airplane. We don't have equipment or permission to blow smoke that will show a lasting trail. The GPS will be captured however, and immediately after the flight, the captain will send you the GPS trace as shown above, to immortalize your message. You may also see it from flightradar24.com, but at smaller scales it's not accurate.
You have the option to be in the DA20, simply mention it in the email. A tolerance for roller coasters is strongly recommended due to the higher-G, skidding turns, and overall disorientation.
