Flaps Down – Wine Up

Flaps Down – Wine Up is a community of pilot enthusiasts who believe the best flights end with great conversation and a glass of wine. Based at LEMT, Madrid’s most important general aviation aerodrome, we share a passion for flying, freedom, and friendship.

From smooth landings on sunny afternoons to golden-hour departures over the Castilian plains, we celebrate the spirit of general aviation both in the air and on the ground. When the flaps come down, the stories take off.

Whether you fly, dream of flying, or simply love the rhythm of the runway, Flaps Down – Wine Up is where aviation meets camaraderie. ✈️🍷
