Gliding at Lilydale

Ever dreamed of soaring with just the whisper of the air rushing by?

Try an air experience gliding flight with the Gliding Club of Victoria!

Glider flights commence with the glider being towed to your chosen release height by a powered "tug" aircraft. Once the required height is reached your qualified instructor releases the glider from the tow and the wonderful experience of "silent flight" commences.

If you wish, your instructor will allow you to have some "hands on" flying experience and teach you the basics of flying a sailplane.

What else could you ask for?

The wonderful experience of silent flight..

• the Yarra Valley in its full splendour below you, inviting you to take a winery tour
• the city skyline looking deceptively close
• the surrounding hills and reservoirs to top it off
• smiling faces after landing that guarantee your satisfaction
• while other members of your group can participate in the ground activities, up close and personal.

If you are keen, you can try your hand at the controls and realise how easy it is to fly or you can choose to bask in the views and just enjoy the experience for all it is worth while the qualified instructor does all the work.

You will be talking about it for a while!
