The aircraft is also much easier to fly and the cost is much lower which make this type of flight more accessible to all. The Trike course plan is similar to a conventional pilot license course but the requirements to obtain an ultralight license are much less demanding. We all like to share the fun things we do. We always record photos and videos of all our flights with a GoPro camera so you always have the option to take proof of your incredible experience with you. We are here to guide you every step of the way. All this as you enjoy the view of Drayton Valley from the air. At the end of the flight you will know if that was enough, if you want more or if you would like to become a pilot. During the flight you will have the chance to be the pilot and steer the aircraft. This is a hand on experience so you will have a pre-briefing before the flight to understand the aerodynamics and weather affecting the aircraft. Flight durations range from 15 to 60 minutes so you can choose how much fun you would like to have. There are no prerequisites or requirements to enjoy this initial flight except for the desire to experience something new, exciting and addictive. If you require weightshift microlight training hours/flights to meet the prerequisites for Motorised Hang Gliding Endorsement or you would like further information on a Motorised Endorsement please contact us via phone/text Rohan on 0409 678 734.Join us on your first flying lesson and take to the skies with our certified and friendly instructor.

We have found that the majority of pilots attending to gain their Motorised Endorsement require three days in order to complete the practical and theory requirements. To gain your Motorised Endorsement you will, under Rohan’s direct supervision and as pilot in command of your own airworthy combination, complete a minimum of 10 motorised hang glider flights complete a minimum of 2 hours motorized hang glider flight complete a half hour cross country flight planned with regard to airspace restrictions and demonstrate all the required set-up, start-up, warm-up, taxying, launching, flight and landing skills as specified on the Motorised Endorsement Application Form (view online here). You can’t gain the endorsement on an Advanced rated glider with an Intermediate Pilot Certificate.

We sell NRG Mosquito powered harnesses and Airborne Windsports V-lite and T-lite aircraft. We sell and conduct training for both these categories of aircraft. If your aircraft and attachments weigh more than 70kg, for example like the Airborne T-lite, then you are required to undertake training similar to that for weightshift microlights as this type of aircraft and training is regulated under CAR 95.10. Both of these are carried out under CAR 95.8 providing your wing and motorised attachments combined mass is less than 70kg (without fuel and parachute) like a V-lite. There are two types of launching with a Motorised Endorsement, the first is via foot launching, which many of you will know as a powered harness (FLPHG), the second is via wheel launching and is known as a nano-trike.
