What to Expect

• Experience the wonder of flight on silent wings. These gliders are amongst the most advanced self launching gliders in the world.
• Take off with the engine, climb to height as you take in the spectacular views over Byron Bay’s beaches and beyond, and then switch it off to continue the flight in silence, landing without the engine.
• For those wanting an adrenalin rush – try some aerobatics in a glider – it doesn’t get any better.
• All pilots are professional's of the highest standards. Chief Pilot, Thomas Dattler knows the local area like no other, having flown its ridges and thermals for over 2000 hours.
  He and the other instructors will make your flight a safe and exciting experience – and if you want, you can have a go at the controls yourself.
