点评:1. This agency ONLY wants people to pay and book for their paragliding. They do not do any checks on Health & Safety, no medical advisory or who might not be eligible to actual do this activity. They also promised that the pilot knew good English but the pilots provided barely communicated in English.
2. Pilot hired by this agency: I had a horrifying experience with the pilot allocated to me. My leg folded during take off as to the pilot stepping on my trainers. All this happened at the edge of the launch pad. He got anger and started swearing in Turkish only managed to ask ,”Broken?” And started swearing again and said that I will not my money back. He did not even check if I was okay or fit for any other try.
Unfortunately, I did not realised that I suffered a ruptured ligament as I was in shock. Had the pilot bothered to check on me properly, we wouldn’t have tried again causing further damage to my injury. Also, the pilot and his helper left me at the edge of the launch pad to get up by myself with me strapped to the (heavy) bucket seat. The climb back the launch pad slope was hard as my legs kept on buckling and crashed couple of time.
3. Aftermath: Reported this back to agency and other than trying to pin the blame on me they only apologised once but didn’t offer any REFUND for terrible service, pilot and accident causing ligament tear!
TBH I am lucky to be alive and recovery has been slow and painful!!!
I would advise to avoid this agency and the likes which you will find on the Olidenz high street who do not go through basic checks on H&S and medical exceptions.
翻译:1. 这家机构只希望人们为自己的滑翔伞付费并预订。他们不做任何健康与安全检查,不提供医疗咨询,也不向可能没有资格实际进行这项活动的人员提供任何医疗咨询。他们还承诺飞行员会说一口流利的英语,但飞行员几乎不会用英语交流。
2. 这家机构雇用的飞行员:我与分配给我的飞行员有过一次可怕的经历。起飞时我的腿折叠起来,飞行员踩到了我的运动鞋。这一切都发生在发射台的边缘。他生气了,开始用土耳其语骂脏话,只问了一句“骨折了吗?”然后又开始骂脏话,说我不会退钱。他甚至没有检查我是否还好,是否适合再试一次。
不幸的是,我没有意识到我的韧带断裂了,因为我当时处于休克状态。如果飞行员费心仔细检查我的情况,我们就不会再尝试了,以免我的伤势进一步恶化。此外,飞行员和他的助手把我留在发射台边缘,让我自己站起来,把我绑在(沉重的)桶形座椅上。爬回发射台斜坡很困难,因为我的腿一直在弯曲,摔了好几次。
3. 后果:向代理机构报告了此事,除了试图把责任推到我身上外,他们只道了一次歉,但没有为糟糕的服务、飞行员和事故导致韧带撕裂提供任何退款!
老实说,我很幸运能活下来,恢复过程缓慢而痛苦!!!
我建议避开这个代理机构以及奥利登茨大街上的类似机构,他们不进行基本的健康与安全和医疗例外检查。
