GLORIOUS GLIDING - A Special Post

Easily the HIGHlight of our trip !!! Bah Ha !!! Glorious Gliding over Lake Keepit thanks to the Lake Keepit Soaring Glider Club. See the famous dog-fight between Yankee Yiannis and Baron Von Bundy as they fight tooth-and-nail for supremacy over the skies of Lake Keepit about half-way between Gunnedah and Tamworth in NSW. All the stats you need are in the photos and we thank Ian and Andrew for taking John and Nick up respectively. Gliding is extremely safe given the incredible lift aerodynamics, low-drag and anti-stall characterisitcs of the aircraft. You also wear a parachute inside anyway - only one person has ever used it in Australian gliding history... Gliding is a simply breath-taking experience and you literally feel like you have wings of your own. If you ever get a chance - GO GLIDING !!!

Be sure to watch the exciting 8min short film "Glider Wars" featuring our glider flight above the skies of Lake Keepit.
