    What does the typical day look like?

    From the flight school, you'll drive to the launch site. (about 45mins away). When you arrive at the launch site, your instructor will discuss all the details of your flight and answer any questions you have as he prepares you for your adventure. After you assist in the assembly and and pre-flight of the glider, you are ready to get in your harness. Careful adjustments are made to ensure your comfort and safety each step of the way. You will do a short practice run and your tandem pilot will instruct you on your three responsibilities: run, hold onto his harness and have fun! At launch, you'll do a hang check and go over your flight plan. When you are ready and the wind is right, you will begin your launch and after a few steps, you'll be flying.

    If I'm aftraid of heights, can I learn to fly?
    Many hang gliding pilots claim to be afraid of heights. If you enjoy flying in airplanes then you will probably be comfortable in a hang glider.
    How heavy is a hang glider?
    The modern lightweight training gliders weigh about 50 pounds on the ground. But with just a little bit of wind they weigh almost nothing at all.
