Glacier flying in Zell am See

Hi,

I'm going to be in Zell in a few weeks. I have never tried flying an aircraft with skis.

Are there any schools nearby that have ski equipped aircraft?

Gletscherlandung (glacier landing) is 'verboten' in Austria.
Go to Switzerland or France.

Hi I did some from Meribel in the french 3 valleys. It is the most amazing flying you will do especially out of Meribel which is 6000 odd feet up and less than 500 meters.
It is basically like going off an aircraft carrier with a steep down slope launching you off and over forests.
