Fantastic
Ground crew and Pilot Tony were very welcoming , informative and explained everything I needed to know for my first flight in a glider. Thoroughly recommend a glider flight with Adelaide Soaring Club. Great Experience. Thank you.
Gliding high.
I always wondered why pelicans do it. Now I know why. I can''t recommend this experience enough. Very professional pilot made you very comfortable.
What you can expect
Experience the thrill of learning to fly with this gliding introductory flight over Gawler by the iconic Barossa Valley. You’ll be strapped in the front seat with a qualified instructor in the rear and launched by a power plane to an exhilarating 3,000 feet. Check out the modern two-seat fibreglass sailplane with your Duty Instructor who will show you around the glider and explain the controls. Then it’s time for take-off. Your instructor will conduct the launch and the release before it’s your turn to handle the aircraft. Experience the excitement of shallow and sharp turns, slow-speed and high-speed runs, pinpoint landing, and just soaring high above the countryside. You’ll have a debrief after your flight to mark the end of your adrenaline-pumping flying lesson.
