How It Works

From booking to flying in four simple steps

1

Book Your Date

Email us with your preferred weekend. We fly Saturdays and Sundays, weather permitting, from early spring through late fall.

2

Arrive at the Field

Come to Lenawee County Airport (KADG) in Adrian. We'll give you a brief orientation and introduce you to your instructor.

3

Learn & Fly

After a quick ground briefing, you'll strap in and get towed to altitude. Then the real magic begins—silent flight with hands-on instruction.

4

Land & Debrief

Your instructor will log your flight time and we'll answer any questions. Most people are already planning their next flight.

Questions?

Do I need any experience?

None at all. This is designed for complete beginners. Your instructor will teach you everything you need to know.

What's the difference between this and The Ride?

The Ride ($150) is a single scenic flight—great for a first taste. The 101 ($199) is a complete starter package: 3 flights, 3 months of memberships (SSA + club), your own logbook, and 2 more flights at member rates. It's designed to actually get you started as a pilot.

Is it safe?

Extremely. Gliders are simple, reliable aircraft. All our instructors are FAA-certificated, and we've been flying safely since 1963. We're also members of the Soaring Society of America.

What if the weather is bad?

We'll reschedule at no charge. Safety always comes first, and we need good flying conditions to give you the best experience.
