Inspirational gliding video - A great idea for kids
 

Or view a higher quality version of this inspirational gliding video

A good start to a flying career or wonderful sport for pilots to enjoy.:D

However if continuing with cross-country or competition flying is your aim then Southern Cross is limited by both location and mindset. You need to move inland to enjoy great soaring in Australia, Narromine, Lake Keepit, Temora, Corowa, Benalla, Waikerie, the WA wheat belt and the Darling Downs are the places to fly. [for Sydneysiders Bathurst is a good compromise];)

This was another inspriational gliding video from earlier... :}

Got two minutes into the first video and could not stand the terrible commentary that was made worse by the Sooth Efrikan accent.
