Extractions: Jump to: navigation search Hang gliding is an air sport in which a pilot flies an unpowered and light foot-launchable glider aircraft known as a hang glider . Most modern hang gliders are made of an aluminum- or composite-framed fabric wing which lacks moving control surfaces . The pilot is mounted on a harness hanging from the airframe and exercises control by shifting body weight. Although it started out as simply gliding down small hills on low performance manned kites, hang glider technology has evolved the ability to soar for hours, gain thousands of feet of altitude in thermal updrafts, perform aerobatics, and fly cross country over large distances. Hang glider launching from Mount Tamalpais Modern 'flexible wing' hang glider. For competitive purposes, there are three classes of hang glider: The flexible wing hang glider, having flight controlled by a wing whose shape changes by virtue of the shifted weight of the pilot.

Extractions: Join the forums! Home AHGA blogs ... Weather Since 1975 the Arizona Hang Glider Association has represented free flight pilots in the Grand Canyon State. Our members - ranging from doctors to day laborers - share a fanatical interest in soaring hang gliders and paragliders, the sites we fly from, and 'the life' we all live. Sometimes we launch by running off a mountain (foot launch) or by being towed aloft by an ultralight or a ground-based unit, but to us it's all the same: get me up so I can play in the most amazing playground you'll ever know. If you're interested in the purest form of flight known to man - soaring like the birds - then you're in the right place. Do you want to fly? Learning to fly will take some time and effort. Look at it this way: walking is something we were designed to do, and how long did it take you to learn to do that? Then again birds can fly and they have tiny little bird brains Talk to one of our instructors (linked in the sidebar on the left) to learn to fly hang gliders or paragliders. Either way get ready for an adventure that will last you the rest of your life. References to hang gliders or hang gliding in the AHGA include all forms of foot-launchable, heavier-than-air soaring aircraft, including flex wing hang gliders, paragliders, rigid wing hang gliders, foot-launched sailplanes, and others.
