Gawler Microlights is based at the Gawler Gliding Club in Gawler South Australia. Originally a RAAF Military base many years ago, has been used as a gliding club since. We operate just outside a Military restricted air zone and must get clearance to operate above 1500ft.

We have a small group of trikes that fly from this site on most weekends and have two hangers on the field. Most of the guys (no girls yet) are really nice people.... Some have there faults and others just adjust to allow for them.

Some don't clean their Trikes, others talk too much on the radio, and some are bald, skinny, and some are just plain ugly. But we do all have one thing in common....

WE LOVE TO FLY TRIKES!!!
