Glider

planeur vol à voile

 

A glider is clearly the most efficient aircraft without an engine. The glider has a very small sink rate and seems not to want to descend... The long thin wings of the glider confers to it a unique charm in addition of reducing its induced drag and to reduce useless energy loss and altitude loss... so important to stay in flight ! A high performance glider can reach a glide ratio of over 60 and fly at very high speeds. A glider pilot that knows how to use thermals and orographics ascendance efficiently can fly for hours and cover hundred of kilometers.

Several well organized nonprofit flying clubs exists in Canada. You can get an initiation tandem ride with an instructor with your friends to live a unique experience or you can start flight training lessons to become a pilot.
