Hawaii's Largest Soaring OperationSee the island, in a sleek high-performance aircraft, soaring the skies over northwest Oahu. Panoramic vistas unfold as your pilot guides you in this bubble-topped aircraft; on the wings of the wind with sights and sensations never experienced before.
Your piloted Scenic glider Tour starts with flight along the lush Waianae Mountains with rugged cliffs, cattle and horse trails; panoramic views of Oahu's world famous North Shore including Waimea Bay; a glimpse of the Satellite Tracking Station at Kaena Point, and colorful windsurfing sails off the beach at Mokuleia.
Depending on the length-of-ride and weather conditions, you can see all of the North Shore and most of the interior of the island including Pearl Harbor, Diamond Head and Honolulu to the South.
A 20-minute flight can attain altitudes of 3,000 feet or more. Mother Nature sometimes has a say in where we can fly and how high we can get (because of cloud-cover and wind-conditions). Seating is "cozy"
