Have
you ever wondered what birds feel flying high above? Have you ever
dreamed of soaring like an eagle with a birds eye view of beautiful
Florida? Come join us in the excitement, adventure and
effortless beauty of flying a hang glider! Hang gliding is the purest
form of free flight
no engines, no cockpits. Just you and the
majesty of the surrounding world.
Take an introductory flight to 2500 feet, or even a MILE high
with a certified tandem instructor. Our professional instructors
will take you on the flight of a lifetime! Depending upon weather,
you can see both Florida coasts, Downtown Disney and Epcot, Universal
Studios, Orlando, Tampa, and on special days you might even see
a shuttle or missile launch from Cape Canaveral!
In tandem hang gliding, the student and instructor pilot the glider
together. They are attached to each other as well as hooked into
the glider. Tandem hang gliders are designed specifically for tandems
and certified by the United States Hang Gliding Association and
United States Hang Glider Manufacturing Association. The wing is
larger than those designed for individual use which makes it safe
and easy to fly. Our tandem gliders have heavy-duty landing gear
and oversized harnesses to ensure your safety and comfort.
We use an ultralight airplane like a taxi to take us to our desired
altitude. Once released from the plane, you will be amazed at how
quiet and peaceful flying is. Our instructors will show you how
to fly the glider, teaching you the basics of turning, slowing and diving the glider. After these simple instructions, you will
have the freedom to fly. Our instructors are there to ensure that
your flight is the most exciting, safe, and memorable experience
of your life!
Tandem hang gliding requires no experience and is perfect for beginners.
If after your first flight you are hooked and want to learn how
to fly on your own, we have an established training program to help you earn your ratings for solo hang gliding flight. And if you progress
through our training and learn to fly on your own, you will truly
feel like a soaring eagle!
Anyone
with a desire can fly. We are handicap accessible and can accommodate
any ages. Please call 1-877-FLY-QUEST or 352-429-0213 for more information
and reservations.
Come feel the exhilaration of free flight at the largest hang gliding
school in Florida!
