The Hamilton Soaring Club took to the skies in 2016 at the local airport in Hamilton, TX, and what a journey it has been! Over the years, we've welcomed more members, added fantastic aircraft, and fine-tuned our operations. Our club is buzzing with incredible glider pilots who have amazing stories to share, often over a delightful lunch. We're thrilled to see a steady influx of aspiring pilots, with many students joining us for training and private pilots eager to experience the thrill of flying engine-less!
Gliding is an exhilarating way to dive into the basics of flight, relying solely on thermals and your piloting skills to soar through the skies. While we primarily use the aero-tow method, we occasionally mix it up with an auto tow. As a member, you'll discover how gliding truly romanticizes the art of flight, allowing you to glide gracefully through the air like a bird, harnessing nature to gain altitude. If you’ve never experienced gliding before, you’re in for a treat! Join us for a discovery flight and capture epic photos to share with your friends. Even better, bring them along and make it a fantastic day out!
