The exhilaration of flying is too keen, the pleasure too great, for it to be neglected as a sport.” Orville Wright

Kahu Soaring provides glider flight training within the CAA Part 149 system administered by Gliding New Zealand. Our flights are instructional and are not sold as scenic passenger flights.

A first instructional lesson is available to people with a genuine interest in gliding. It includes a briefing and, when appropriate, participation at the controls under instructor supervision. If you are seeking only a scenic sightseeing flight and do not wish to participate in flying the glider, please contact Glide Queenstown, a CAA-certificated Part 115 adventure aviation operator specialising in scenic glider flights.

Maximum weight (100kg) and minimum age (15 years) limits are applied, and good command of English is essential to obtain the maximum enjoyment of your experience.

(Please note that in order to fly with me you will have to join the gliding club as a short term member)
