Overview
Take off with with your pilot and climb over the spectacular Main Arm Valley towards Mt Warning. Enjoy the views in the east of the Byron Coast all the way up to the Gold Coast. Look to the west and marvel at the beauty of the Nightcap and Border Ranges National Parks. We'll then glide back along the Coorabell Ridge soaring a wave - then it's over to Byron Bay to spot dolphins or whales. This awe-inspiring gliding experience will then and head back to Tyagarah for landing.
These self-launching motor gliders embody the advantages of powered aircraft combined with the inherent safety of sailplanes, and regularly soar the rugged ridges of Mt Warning and the cliffs below the historic Byron Bay Lighthouse.
All flights commence with a ground briefing on power gliders and methods of controlling the aircraft.
