Safety & Fun
are our priorities
since 1989
Paragliding is What We Do.
Our modern step-by-step training methods will turn a beginner into a full-blooded paragliding pilot.
We teach each student to take off, fly and land properly. We do it step by step. We do not send our students to their exams too early. We want our pilots to feel safe after their test and participate in our trips and safety training.
We listen carefully to every customer.

Paragliding is my passion and I have had the privilege to enjoy it with the best pilots in the world. I think we have something in common: we are all friends of the air, we like a beautiful panorama and we like good company.
Eva Maranta
I started flying more than 16 years ago, and since then it has become my greatest passion. ME. LOVE. CROSS. COUNTRY. FLYING and recently I started to discover the world of acro maneuvers. I fly tandem and I am a flight instructor so I can share my knowledge and passion with others. When I fly, I feel as free as a bird and I love to experience the infinity far above the peaks. Let me show you my world!
Anine Janse van Vuuren
Paragliding has become a real passion for me, which I would like to share with you. I support the touch and go team wherever I can: out in the flying area, but also in the office, packing emergency parachutes and helping with the organization.
Stephen Oliver
Flying is simply in my blood. I have been flying for over 36 years, with gliders, piston and turboprop aircraft, but paragliding is by far the most exciting and rewarding flying I have ever done. I now have the privilege of opening the doors to this world as a flight instructor. There is nothing more satisfying than seeing the beaming smile on a student’s face after their first high altitude flight, or witnessing them launch their own flying career after the exam! I show you my world!
Leon Schonert
The funny young man who entertains you at the start line and supports the team in the back office.
Silvio Bucher
Paragliding became one of my greatest passions. It all started as a hobby and now I love to experience the most beautiful adventures together with other pilots and observe the world from a different point of view. After many friends wanted to accompany me I became a tandem pilot. I now love to share my passion, meet new people and cultures. Nothing is better than the big smile of my passengers after landing. Come and fly with me!
Andy Piers
Since my youth I have a passion for the mountains. I’ve hiked, climbed, biked and skied in the Alps, but paragliding has taken me to the top the most. Literally and emotionally. I’ve been flying for a very long time, and I plan to fly just as long or longer. To achieve this, safety must come first, but in the process we can still have a lot of fun and exciting experiences. I love to share this passion, thrill and joy with those who are new to the sport. This includes non-pilots and newly qualified pilots. Come take to the air with me and let me put a smile on your face. When I’m not flying, I’m usually involved with sustainable investments that span materials, clothing, energy and food. In short, the care and enjoyment of the natural environment are my life.

Growing up on the Rigi and seeing the paragliders from time to time. 😉 Flights set 16ni. I didn’t have much time to fly for a few years because of my job as a photographer, but now I’m proud to have two booths.
Oli Wirths
I am a paraglider, alpinist and success coach. I love not only sharing the joy of flying, but also getting to know you and your personal story. Let’s create a wonderful day together that you will never forget!
Marco Maranta
I have been paragliding for over 20 years. My biggest passion is cross-country flying, where I try to realize long flights. I am always fascinated by the fact that every flight is different and therefore every day ends differently. This experience, joy and fascination of flying I share with my passengers since summer 2019.
Beni Stocker
At the age of 20 I heard about a new sport: paragliding. I looked, tried and knew that it would never let me go. Flying from pilot to paraglider tester, flight instructor, exam expert…. But most of all I love to share my passion with you by tandem flying.
Björn Hjelmland
As a tandem pilot for many years, it is especially important to me that you experience an unforgettably beautiful flight. This starts already during the ascent or before the start: I explain you the weather and the flight conditions, the equipment and finally the upcoming flight. Only then do we take off together into the beautiful landscape of central Switzerland.
And with a pilot with over 30 years of paragliding tandem flight experience, you can feel safe and enjoy your flight carefree.
Marco Affentranger
It all started with a simple tandem flight in 2008 when I unsuspectingly made my first flight on a paraglider. Today paragliding is my passion. Every flight is unique and a lasting experience. I look forward to sharing my passion with you.

Story: the founder of touch and go...
I am Peter Enz.
I have been flying paragliders since May 1987 and have also been a SHV/BAZL flight instructor since 1989. My life partner/girlfriend also wanted to fulfill this dream. Since she couldn’t get along with the existing flight schools – I teamed up with two other flight instructors. The result was the foundation of the Paragliding School Pilatus AG in October 1989. Three of us ran the flight school based in Kriens with an enormously large store.
So we moved our headquarters, as well as the main flying area to Brunnen. Fronalpstock, Rigi, Rotenflue turned out to be great, ideal training areas, plus the Urmiberg, where all exams took place for years! Logically, we also moved our attractive store to Brunnen and expanded our range with a sports store. My business partners at that time, left the AG in 1990 and then in 1993 and so other flight instructors (Guy Bertrand Jaquier and Urs Nadler) joined the team and did a great job over the years.
Now 31 years and 1 month later I hand over the helm of touch and go… and Gabor Kezi and look forward to continue supporting him.
Vision

Our customers say about us
I organized a tandem flight for my wife. The whole experience was super smooth and enjoyable. Gabor is welcoming, clear in setting expectations and delivery (my wife smiled from ear to ear after putting it on). The best from my point of view is the safety aspect: For such an experience you want a real professional and with touch and go… you get one. Gabor was in full control.In short, I can only recommend it!
It was a great experience. I was a little afraid of flying, but it was gone in the air after 2 seconds. Flying was brilliant, we were in the air for over an hour. We just flew along the rock face, simply breathtaking and the view is awesome. It was very impressive to fly with the thermals. We are so excited that we will definitely fly with you again.
In September I fulfilled my dream and went for a tandem flight with Gabor, a wonderful experience that couldn’t be compared to anything else. After the initial excitement and fear, I felt safe very quickly and had a lot of joy and fun in the air, and was even allowed to drive myself for a short time … it was perfect! 4 weeks later I flew again – again with Gabor of course!
Wonderful tandem flight on Engelberg. Spontaneous, super friendly and very professional. I can only recommend.
Many thanks to Gabor and Peter for this unforgettable experience! We felt we were in very professional and experienced hands and were able to enjoy the flight until the last second. From the booking to the communication to the exchange of the photo and video recordings, everything was very uncomplicated.
Super nice evening flight from Rigi with Gabor. The entire experience was very nice and I felt in the best hands at all times. A very cool end to the flight thanks to a few acrobatics. I would definitely fly with Gabor again at any time.
