Welcome to the Bundaberg Soaring Club, located in the picturesque Bundaberg Regional area in Queensland, Australia. Established in 1965, the club has been providing exhilarating gliding experiences for over 50 years. Nestled at our current site on the airfield 20 kilometres south on the Childers Road, just down from the Forestry Tower, we boast a vibrant community of 15 dedicated flying members.
Our club offers a diverse fleet of glider aircraft to suit all levels of experience. Our fleet currently includes a Grob 103 Acro Twin Seater Trainer, a privately owned Twin Astir that is available for use, and a Pilatus B4 Single. All of our aircraft are meticulously maintained and available for use by our members. The Twin Astir and Grob 103 are primarily used for Air Experience Flights and student training, while the Pilatus B4 is exclusively for solo pilots with a minimum of 20 solo hours.
At the Bundaberg Soaring Club, we take pride in offering various avenues to experience the thrill of gliding. Our Air Experience Flights provide the opportunity to soar through the sky with an experienced instructor for a reasonable fee of $170. 00 per flight. Each flight typically lasts between 15 to 20 minutes, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the joy of gliding.
In the unlikely event that we are unable to deliver this experience on your first flight, we offer a complimentary second flight within 30 days. Additionally, we offer a discounted rate of half price on a second flight within the same 30-day period for the same individual. If you wish to share the gift of gliding with a loved one, vouchers are also available for purchase.
Join us every Sunday, weather permitting, as we take to the skies and indulge in our passion for gliding. Our launches at the airfield are done exclusively by winch, ensuring a safe and exhilarating experience for all. Whether you are a novice seeking to learn the art of gliding or an experienced pilot searching for a supportive community, the Bundaberg Soaring Club welcomes you.
Should you have any inquiries or wish to book a flight, please do not hesitate to contact us. Our friendly staff are eager to assist you and ensure your gliding experience is unforgettable. Connect with us today and embark on an adventure in the skies with the Bundaberg Soaring Club.
