Description

A glider ride is a wonderful gift that they will remember forever. 


The glider rider starts with a brief orientation to the glider, followed by getting into the aircraft with an FAA-certified pilot. The sailplane is then hooked to the tow rope attached to the tow plane and in no time, you are airborne! The tow plane will climb with the glider behind it until high above the earth. Your pilot will release from the tow plane and begin free flight. You can even take the controls and see what it is like to fly a glider! Flight times depend on weather conditions. In most cases, a ride lasts 25 to 30 minutes.

Special Instructions

Certificate for one person.  Yards Creek Soaring is located in Blairstown Airport in beautiful Warren County, N.J. Expires May 2013. Open all year -- weather permitting
