Enjoy the unique experience of a silent gliding flight from 4,000 ft. Fly the glider yourself and bask in the wonderful Victorian countryside below you. This is an experience so serene, you'll be wishing that you never have to land the glider.

You’ll start your gliding adventure with your friendly instructor. After some safety instructions and demonstrations you'll take the front seat of your sleek glider. Your instructor will be seated behind you.

This is the time to ask all those questions! After a smooth take off, the glider is released at 4,000 feet to enjoy the unique thrill and tranquillity of silent flight that only gliding can provide. You will take in the magnificent views of the Great Dividing Range (and its stunning mountains including Mt. Buffalo and Mt. Buller) to the south and east and the great plains to the north.

Then, when it's safe to do so and if you are keen, you can fly the glider "hands-on" and take control after we demonstrate the basics to you in the air. And don't worry: your instructor is always sitting behind you and will not let you do anything unsafe. As the gliding experience comes to a close, you will gently glide to a smooth and short landing, ready to jump off the glider with a huge smile in your face.

    Would have liked a phone call from the provider a day or 2 prior without being prompted as I had to know if the flights was on subject to weather conditions as Benalla was a 3hr drive for me. Other than that the experience was faultless, people friendly and thoroughly recommended.

    Great flight with a very competent instructor who allowed me to take control as much as possible. The aerobatics were brilliant.
