Learning to fly a glider has been the starting point for many successful
aviation careers. Gliding is one of the safest, most enjoyable and yet most challenging
forms of manned flight. It is something that virtually anybody can do - if you can drive a
car, you can almost certainly learn to fly a glider. Three flight training options are
available at the Caboolture Gliding Club. These include air experience flights, a course
running over a number of weekends and progressive training as a Club member.

Join the Caboolture Gliding Club as a
flying member and come along as and when you are able. This way you can learn to fly at
your own pace. For a student
of average ability and assuming virtually no previous flying training experience, the
total cost to the "first solo" stage might be in the order of $2,500, but much
depends on the ability of the student to attend regularly. |
