Sydney Motor Glider Flight Group

Sydney Motor Glider Flight Group is a small friendly non-profit group. We have a team of highly skilled gliding instructors with an average of 25 years experience in gliders. We are based at Camden Airport, about an hour’s drive South West of Sydney. We invite you to come gliding at Camden with us where you will get to experience the joy of flight and to ride in our motor glider and soar like a bird.

Motor gliders are just gliders which can take off by themselves. We can climb to whatever height we choose and go wherever we choose, then simply switch the motor off. We then glide and soar for the rest of the flight, most of it in fact and complete the flight by landing like a conventional glider with the motor still turned off.

Our club can introduce you to the pure joy and exhilaration of gliding. We do not offer joy flights where you just ride as a non participating passenger. We offer Air Experience Flights during which you will receive personalised introductory instruction about flying a glider and how everything works. This is a very relaxed experience where our aim is to show you what a great sport gliding is. If you decide it is the sport for you, the next step is getting you established into further flying lessons. If you decide it’s not for you, we are sure you will have still had a great experience with spectacular views of the Sydney Basin and Blue Mountains!

You will receive a thorough briefing before and after your flight and be given clear explanations and demonstrations of how aircraft fly. As well as taking in the scenic beauty of the Sydney Basin, when you are ready, you will have plenty of opportunities to take the controls under the supervision of your instructor. Whether you choose a more serene or a more adventurous flying experience, or even a little of both, these glider rides are memorable.

We can provide personalised GIFT CERTIFICATES that we email direct to you for that special event. We also offer discounted rates for young people 16 years of age and under, follow up training flights, advanced training, bulk flying and group bookings.
