Free flying at the Coupe Icare

Watch: What’s your best advice?

Our Coupe Icare poll of pilots sharing wisdom and advice

5 November, 2026, by Cross Country

What’s the best advice you’ve ever received as a pilot? That’s the question we put to visiting pilots at this year’s Coupe Icare. They range from not rushing your progression, to always having somewhere to land to travelling as much as possible. Our interviewees include Baptiste Lambert, the world champion, team pilots who’ve been flying decades to pilots on launch who’ve only been flying a couple of years. Did they miss anything? What’s the best advice you’ve ever received?

Check out what we discovered inside the manufacturers’ tents here.
