- you often rise up in thermals alongside birds! You will be towed into the air by a powered aircraft After a pre-flight briefing you will be strapped into the glider with your instructor The glider is attached to another aircraft which will tow you into the sky! Once the cable is released you search out some thermals & then gently glide back down to earth Unforgettable!
