Introductory Flights

Classic
Air Experience Flight

More Height. More Time. More Unforgettable.

The Extended Air Experience Flight takes everything in our Basic flight and elevates it — literally. A higher tow means more altitude to work with, more time aloft, and a much broader view of the stunning Tasmanian Midlands stretching away beneath you.

At 5,000ft, you're soaring at altitude. The haze-blue landscape below, the quiet rush of air over the wings, the needle-thin horizon of the Southern Ocean on a clear day — this is gliding at its most compelling.

Your instructor conducts the takeoff and landing, and the flight follows the same dual-control format as the Basic flight — with more time in which to experience it. Many of our Extended flight participants come back to start proper training shortly afterwards.
