Devil and Angel Joy Flight near Gold Coast, QueenslandWhat a surprising dichotomy that can also be found when one looks at the wonders of joy flights! We have on our hands a most amazing competition glider, which can thrill you more, and by far more, then any theme park on the Gold Coast. It is the Îlittle devilâ side of our High Tech Gliding Team. And it is the least known of our many qualities on display. The Angel side is undoubtedly of a broader spectrum: we like Angel for the soaring principle, the idea that a physical activity can touch upon a greater understanding of the world just by experience·donât we say a birdâs eye view? An Angel flight is definitively a smooth ride, characterised by unfathomable beauty. Do you want more? THE DEVIL SIDE!Climb aboard the amazing DG 500 M for the ride of your life. This aircraft is a stunning example of manâs ingenuity to build with style, grace and precision. This glider has been deemed the best looking lady in the sky and we couldn'tât agree more. She was built with the sole intention of soaring for as long as possible and with a 22-meter wingspan you can see why. In fact, the DG is rated as a competition glider and without a doubt one of our favourite aircraft in the hangar. ![]() ![]() The DG has a retractable engine that assists us in getting off the ground but you wonât need it for very long. Once we have found your first thermal, the engine conveniently tucks itself away into the fuselage of the aircraft, giving us the best aerodynamics possible. The whispering wind is the only sound reminding you of being in a plane. We are now becoming the masters of the sky with the clouds as our nearest neighbours. With this joy flight, after take off, we climb out to sea towards Byron Bay at 3500 feet. Once the engine is retracted, you will experience some of the most amazing flying youâve ever done or imagined, or will ever want to do. We leave that up to you. This will be the biggest rush you will ever experience in your life as the DG is capable to do pretty much anything you ever dreamed of doing in an aircraft. ![]() ![]() High speed in flight of over 250 km/h, steep turns, Chandelles, Lazy Eight, loops, 0-gravity (same as a skydive jump), you name it, this glider is more than capable.
What is a Chandelle? No, we wonât be serving you one of those expensive French dishes on board but we will serve up one of the best experiences you will ever have in an aircraft. Tell you what, jump aboard and experience it for yourself. We promise that it will be the best explanation you have ever been given.
THE ANGEL SIDE!The Byron Shire and its surrounding hinterland boast some of the most spectacular soaring landscapes in the world! ![]() ![]() On one of our Glider joy flights you will see the wonders of this region from the silent wings of a glider, manâs best replica of a soaring bird. Step off the ground and into the skies with one of our suggested joy flights, or choose your own route.
