You step to the edge of a wind-facing slope at Andy Jackson Airpark, harness snug, helmet clicked, while a pilot checks lines and scans the sky. The air lifts and, for a few heartbeats, the ground eases away — San Bernardino spreads below: chaparral ridgelines, the grid of city streets, and the serrated spine of the San Bernardino Mountains beyond.
moderate.
1–1.5 hours (including briefings and transfer; 25–30 min flight).
Basic mobility and ability to run a few steps on uneven ground; not strenuous otherwise
Pilots aim for 25–30 minutes of airtime on favorable days; flights can be shorter in marginal conditions or longer if thermals allow.
Not suitable for people under ~66 lbs (30 kg) or over ~250 lbs (113 kg); travelers should meet minimum age/guardian requirements set by the operator.
No prior flying experience is required—this is a tandem flight with a certified pilot who handles launch, flight, and landing.
Flights are scheduled for favorable wind and thermal conditions; if conditions are unsafe the operator will reschedule or offer a refund per their cancellation policy.
The San Bernardino uplands were traversed and used by Serrano people for millennia; modern recreational flight here grew alongside Southern California’s hang-gliding and paragliding communities.
Stick to marked launch and landing zones, pack out all waste, and avoid trampling native chaparral to protect fragile soil and plant regeneration.
