Description:
Your experience starts with a lesson where you will learn about hang gliders and the basics of how they work. Your instructor is a Regional Director, and a former Vice President, for the United States Hang Gliding Association - so you are in good hands!
Then, it's over to the landing field for ground school. In ground school, you learn to lift the glider, how to hold it and how to move with the glider. After ground school, the only thing left is to do is fly!
The balance of the day is spent getting short, actual solo flights off the training hill.
By the end of the day you will know how to launch, fly & land a Hang Glider at the training hill!
