Tandem Hang Gliding Lessons

2000ft Tandem Hang Gliding LessonFly to altitudes of 2000 ft. or higher with a certified instructor from our tow site at Currituck County airport. The views of Currituck Sound, the ocean, and the surrounding countryside are breathtaking from these altitudes. Once released from the tow plane, the only sounds are from you, the instructor, and the wind flowing around you. These elements, combined with stalls, dives, and turns, are sure to make tandem hang gliding the most exciting and memorable experience of your stay in the Outer Banks.

Glider in Tow In tandem hang gliding, the student and instructor are hooked into the glider together. The glider is designed specifically for tandems with a larger wing area for more lift and tricycle landing gear to simplify take offs and landings. An ultralight plane tows you to altitude, the glider is released, then you and your instructor glide back to the airport where you land like a plane.


Towing Up While tandem hang gliding requires no experience and is perfect for beginners, it is also a fantastic way for more serious students to make rapid progress in their training programs. With tandem hang gliding, you truly fly like an eagle.

Hang Glider Taking OffNo experience is necessary and hang gliding tandems are handicap accessible.
