 General information
GPS coordinates : take off : 36°45'29" (36.7581)S; 146°57'57" (146.966)E - Elevation : 779 m.
landing : 36°44'57" (36.7493)S; 146°58'47" (146.98)E - Elevation : 341 m.
Take off : The Mystic take-off is a professionally laid tennis court material (plastic grass) five gliders wide facing due North into the prevailing valley breeze and sun conditions. It is flyable most days.
Landing : The offical bomb-out is on the Wandiligong road to the east of launch. Landing may be either side of the bituman road. Best to look at this before going up the hill because it is out of sight from launch.
Going there : About 3 hours from Melbourne by road, turn south at Wangaratta.
Comments : Probably the most easily accessable and most popular thermal site in Australia.
Weather hazards : North winds can reinforce the northerly valley breeze and get quite strong. The nth end of the landing paddocks are in the lee of trees and should be avoided in strong conditions. The bowl in front of launch can be turbulent in westerlies.
Flight regulation : Pilots must have HGFA and club membership to fly here. 10,000 ft ASL is allowed over launch.
People to contact : The NE Victorian Hang gliding club controls the site and requires pilots to be members of both the HGFA and NEVicHG club before flying. See the club site at http://www.nevhgc.net/ for more information.
Parking :
Website : http://www.nevhgc.net/
Tourism  : Bright is a major tourist destination, with walks, mountain biking, mountains and snow in the winter on the doorstep.
