If you read the headline and thought, “Oh, Boy!,” you’re probably a hang glider pilot.

If you read the headline and said, “Huh!?,” a wonderful experience still awaits you.

For 15 years, I’ve sent many friends to Wallaby Ranch. Every single one said they were glad they went.

Some went flying hang gliders (wheel-launched with an instructor; photo). Some didn’t fly but observed the action. All thoroughly enjoyed themselves at this most-unusual flight park.

If you live in the southeast or if you’re headed to Sun ‘n Fun, you may want to visit Wallaby during Wills Wing Demo Days. Wills Wing is the largest American producer of hang gliders and they bring a big batch of them for potential customers to check out.

During Demo Days, Wallaby comes alive with hot action and good times. Get directions to Wallaby (just northwest of the I-4 and US 27 intersection). Then put on your good-time hat (or helmet) and head to the “Ranch.”
