I started glider training last summer and had my first session yesterday to start it back up since the season just reopened. A club-member offered to share the ride with me and we launched and were airborne for about 2.5 hours. We circled with a flock of birds riding a thermal, traveled East and West along the hills North of Hillsboro, and enjoyed views of the valley second-to-none.
If you are looking to learn how to fly gliders, or simply would like to take a ride in a trainer or high-performance glider for a special occasion, this place is close, convenient, and affordable.
Pros: Friendly People & Excellent Rides
Cons: Dependant on Weather
