The Melbourne
Hang Gliding Club was formed by a small number of pilots from
Victoria's Yarra Valley in the mid to late 80's. Since the pioneering
days, the club has enjoyed steady membership growth from pilots across
Melbourne and Victoria. Club membership numbers are now 50+ with a
monthly meeting attendance averaging around 30.
The MHGC offers regular monthly meetings (usually with a guest
speaker), a book and magazine library, support to novice/restricted
pilots, flying holidays, and safety seminars such as parachute repack
nights, pilot rating nights, water landing nights and first aid
courses. The MHGC aims to provide fun, yet safe flying in an
environment where pilots can gain skills and experience under the
guidance of many experienced pilots.
