What is a vertical wind tunnel?
Pretty simple really. It’s a large glass chamber that extends skywards with powerful electric fans at the top. When these operate, air is drawn up through the tube, creating a cushion of air that you can fly on. The amount of airflow is precisely controlled to ensure that it matches the experience level of those in the tunnel. Visit our website www.iflydownunder.com.au for more details on the technology behind vertical wind tunnels.
Is it safe?
Yes. Every aspect of the wind tunnel design has been carefully considered to create a fully controlled environment that provides total safety. Our certified and highly-trained instructors are with you at
all times during your flight to give guidance and reassurance.
Is it hard to breathe?
Not at all. It’s a similar sensation to sticking your head out of a car window when it’s moving. You’ll feel the wind rush over your whole body as it lifts you effortlessly upwards. Just breathe normally and
enjoy the ride.
iFLY has Public Liability Insurance.
