Geelong Gliding Club (Bacchus Marsh)
Geelong Gliding Club is Australia's Premier Gliding Club, since 1929.
The club offers safe, affordable sport aviation at Bacchus Marsh Airfield near Melbourne and at other sites each year.
The Club is a voluntary non-profit organisation with facilities for training interested members of the public in the sport of gliding.
We aim to train pilots to fly and then to enjoy safe cross-country and other forms of soaring flight. Along with this, as an accredited VSA Youth Glide Centre we foster the development of Junior pilots in achieving their goals and aspirations as pilots.

Fun Glider Flights
Do you want to try something new this weekend? Maybe you?ve always been interested in aeroplanes or are thinking of aviation as a hobby? Come and fly with us. Discover the thrill of gliding on an Air Experience Flight (AEF).
Learn to Fly
You can learn to fly with us. We provide free instruction to Club members.
All training flights are provided in two-seat, dual control gliders with our friendly, fully qualified volunteer instructors.
You can start learning from age 15, and there is no upper age limit. If you're fit enough to drive a car you're probably fit to learn to fly gliders.
