Granny Sleigh Ride - $100

This safe and gentle ride is for those who want to be able to say, "I've flown in a sailplane!" You'll experience the take-off, aero-tow to 1,500 feet, several shallow turns, and a precision pattern and landing. This ride lasts approximately ten minutes and is especially designed for children and the faint of heart.

Scenic Ride - $130 to $150

Enjoy the beautiful scenery as you glide silently over the ridges of the nearby Tehachapi Mountains or the wind-turbine ridges and then explore the oak-studded Tehachapi Valley. This 2,500 foot ride is designed for those who want to experience the joy of soaring, learn something about the sport, and enjoy the sights from a new vantage point. The Schweizer 2-33 sailplane, used for our flight lessons, is used for the $120 ride. For $140 you can take your flight in one of our two high performance sailplanes and experience the luxury of the latest fiberglass. Each ride lasts approximately 15 to 20 minutes.

The Best Ride - $185 to $210

This is it, the ride you have all been asking for: The Best Ride! This flight is designed for the most adventurous among you. We'll take you 4,000 feet above the ground on a tow over the Tehachapi Mountains where you can look for red-tail hawks and turkey buzzards. You've got ample time to look around, the ride lasts about thirty minutes. Try it in the Schweizer 2-33 for only $170, or fly in one of our high performance sailplanes for $190. If you are only going around once, take this flight — it's worth it!

Basic Orientation Flight - $160

A hands-on opportunity for those interested in discovering for themselves what it is like to pilot a glider. On your 3,000-foot tow, your instructor will explain and demonstrate the basic techniques of soaring. Then, you will get the chance to try the controls for yourself.
