About the Club

The Hamilton Soaring Club took to the skies in 2016 at the local airport in Hamilton, TX. Since then, we have welcomed more members, added aircraft, and refined our operations.

Our club is home to glider pilots with amazing stories to share, aspiring pilots in training, and private pilots eager to experience the thrill of flying engine-less.

Why Gliding?

Gliding is an exhilarating way to learn the basics of flight, relying on thermals and piloting skill to soar through the skies. We primarily use aero-tow and occasionally use auto tow.

If you have never experienced gliding before, join us for a discovery flight and bring friends along for a memorable day at the airport.

In Loving Memory of Jim Callaway

Jim Callaway was truly the heartbeat of our club. His passion for soaring was unmatched, and he generously shared his knowledge with all of us. As a founding member, he played a pivotal role in shaping the Hamilton Soaring Club.
