A unique flying experience in the Clariden-Tödi-Hüfi-Firn glacier world!
Pilot Peter Wild completed a fantastic Alpine flight with the Maule M-6 from Beromünster via Rigi Urnersee Klausen, followed by a perfect glacier landing on Clariden. The Maule is ideal: pilot and passenger sit next to each other, the view to the front and to the side is perfect.
The return flight was also magnificent: past Schärhorn, Windgällen, Spannort to Titlis and via Engelberg Bürgenstock Lucerne back to Beromünster.
Many thanks to the pilot Peter Wild!
