I will be in Brisbane for the entire month of February and just a bit
of March. Will the gliding still be any good or will it be too late in
the season? Any suggestions on which club I should contact? I have
previously flown with the Geelong Gliding Club while in Melbourne and
with the Canberra Gliding Club while I was in Canberra. Any help for
the yank would be appreciated. Thanks.

Try the gliding club at Jondaryn, about 1/2 hr drive west of Toowoomba =
on the Warrego highway. Excellent fleet, really friendly & very chilled. =
Don't forget your fly repellent!

Jay,
If you want to fly closer to Brisbane then Caboolture Gliding Club just
North of the town is great for local soaring..and an easy drive.

Try the club at Kingaroy too -- club ships include a Dicus, a Duo Discus
for starters -- a little further inland but super soaring in the
peanut growing area
