Support Membership
HSC offers a low-cost support membership system for young people who aspire to become glider pilots.
We welcome those who want to try gliders for the first time, as well as those who flew as students and want to try again.
Once you have taken an aviation medical certificate and obtained a student pilot permit, you can practice flying.
Please note that as this system is offered at a low cost with the aim of supporting young people, flights are limited to those accompanied by a supervisor.
Requirements
To become a support member, you must simultaneously meet the following two requirements:
1. Age: Under 30
2. Students or working adults with an annual income of less than 5 million yen
The support membership system is a limited-time system that applies only while these requirements are met.

Membership Procedure
If you would like to join as a supporting member, please first apply for a visit or experience flight on the Visit & Experience page and then come to Hanyu gliderport.
After seeing the club's activities for yourself and deciding that you are happy with the experience, you will submit the application form and transfer the annual membership fee and multiple flight fees (advance payment*) to the designated account.
* The advance payment is held in advance to eliminate the need for cash settlement at the gliderport.
Any unused amount will be refunded when you cancel your membership.
