From here the aircraft climbs to 4,200 metres above the Monferrato hills, and the whole experience — briefing to landing — takes 2-3 hours.

The Accademia di Paracadutismo was founded in 1965 and is today the reference centre for people coming from Piedmont, Lombardy and Liguria. Directions and a map are on the where we are page.
How to get here from Milan, Turin and Genoa
Casale Monferrato is roughly one hour's drive from Milan, Turin and Genoa: you leave the A26 motorway at the Casale Monferrato Sud exit and the airfield is a few minutes away. From Milan the distance is 75 km.
| Starting city | Approximate time | Route |
|---|---|---|
| Milan | about 1 hour (75 km) | A4 to the A26 junction, then the Casale Monferrato Sud exit |
| Turin | about 1 hour | A4 to the A26 junction, then the Casale Monferrato Sud exit |
| Genoa | about 1 hour | A7 to the A26 junction, then the Casale Monferrato Sud exit |
That is the whole advantage of the location: you drive up for the day, jump in the morning and keep the afternoon free for the area. City-by-city directions are collected on the where we are page.

How your jump day is organised
The full experience lasts 2-3 hours: arrival at the airfield, welcome and briefing, kitting up, the climb to altitude, the jump, the landing and the handover of photos and video. Time in the air is a little over half an hour: 25 minutes of climb to 4,200 metres, 50-60 seconds of freefall at around 200 km/h and 5-10 minutes under the canopy.
Jumps run from 9:00 am until late afternoon, depending on the weather and the number of participants. It is worth arriving with some margin and keeping the rest of the day free.
- What to bring: comfortable clothes and closed trainers; jumpsuit, helmet and harness are provided by us.
- Who comes with you: friends and family can stay in the landing area and watch the whole canopy flight from the ground.
- After the jump: the afternoon is made for the hills — a few ideas in what to do on a weekend in Casale Monferrato.
- Booking: pick your date and time slot from the book now page.
When you can jump: seasons and opening days
We jump all year round, weather permitting. From April to October the airfield is open six days a week, closed on Wednesdays; from November to March jumps only take place at the weekend.
| Period | Days and hours |
|---|---|
| April to October | Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday (closed Wednesday) |
| November to March | Saturday and Sunday only |
| Jump times | From 9:00 am until late afternoon, weather permitting |
In summer it is worth booking a morning slot, when the air is calmest; in spring and autumn a clear day gives the best view over the hills. If the weather turns, your jump is moved to a new date and the booking is not lost.
Why the flying is good over the Monferrato
Francesco Cappa airport sits on the plain, in a wide area free of obstacles, with the airspace needed to climb to 4,200 metres: that altitude is what gives a full 50-60 seconds of freefall, among the highest commonly used for tandems in Italy.
Below you get the Monferrato hills, a wine-growing landscape listed by UNESCO, with the Po and the plain on one side and, on clear days, the Alps on the horizon. It is one of the reasons people pick this dropzone even when they travel in from other regions.
