Gliding
Cadets fly two types of gliders, Grob Viking (shown on the right), a two seat glider that allows an instructor sit behind the Cadet for tuition. The other glider is a Vigilant, is a powered glider, this glider has an engine and can be flown much higher than the Viking so that longer flights can be had. Additionally the pilot and cadet can sit side by side.
