Discover the quiet magic of silent flight over Benalla, gliding above Northeast Victoria with an expert instructor after a tow up to 4,000 feet.
Treat someone to a silent glider flight over Benalla, a serene taste of aviation set against the rolling countryside of Northeast Victoria. After a friendly safety briefing, you will settle into the glider with an experienced instructor seated behind you, then feel the gentle surge as a powerful tow plane lifts you to 4,000 feet.
The moment the tow rope releases, the tow plane peels away and you are left with nothing but the whisper of air and sweeping views across the region toward the distant Alpine ranges. Take the controls yourself under the watchful eye of your instructor, or simply sit back and soak up the quiet. Weather permitting, you may even catch a thermal and climb a little higher. Back on the ground, family and friends are welcome to come close, listen in and share the moment. It is a peaceful, memorable gift for anyone who has ever looked up and wondered what it feels like to fly.
Family and friends are welcome to attend and watch from close by.
Gliding is weather dependent and flights do not run in rain, low cloud, thunderstorms or very high winds; participants should confirm suitable conditions with the experience provider before travelling.
Please bring sunglasses, enclosed shoes rather than sandals or thongs, shorts or long trousers or leggings, a small brimmed hat, and sunscreen during summer.
This experience departs from Benalla Airfield at 35 Samaria Road, Benalla, VIC 3672.
