The hang glider is equipped with its own undercarriage which eliminates the need for running on take off and landing and is therefore suitable for all age groups and people with disabilities.
After an introduction to the equipment and a pre flight briefing, you will be harnessed into the hang glider with your instructor. The microlight will start, and begin towing the glider and it’s occupants into the air for a thrilling ride, gaining height, all the while taking in the views.
Once the towline is jettisoned you and your instructor will glide free and silent in complete awe of the spectacular views overlooking the beautiful countryside.... an experience shared with the birds. You may even take the controls and fly the hang glider yourself or enjoy the thrill of limited aerobatics.
