Hang gliding is an aerial sport where a pilot flies a lightweight, non-motorized aircraft called a hang glider. The glider consists of a fabric wing stretched over a metal frame, allowing the pilot to soar through the air by using wind currents and thermals. Pilots launch from hills or mountains and can glide for long distances, enjoying the sensation of flight. Safety is crucial in hang gliding, and pilots must wear protective gear, including a helmet and harness. Training is essential, often provided by certified instructors, to ensure that pilots understand the equipment and weather conditions. Hang gliding offers a unique way to experience the beauty of nature from above.
