Welcome to the web site of The Gliding Federation of Australia Inc.
This web site is tailored to GFA members services and function. Non members may find more useful information about the sport by visiting www.soaring.org.au and our 'How to start Gliding ' page.
Site registration and log-in is required for several features. Access to contacts, financial information, adding news and events all require log-in. Authors of various areas also require log-in. New content will not be viewable until published by an administrator.
Site navigation is provided with breadcrumb trails at the top of page. In addition there is a site map available from the menu with links to all listed headings. A site search facility is also provided for search on a key word or string. The site structure is based on the GFA structure, so if you want a particular document, think which department it pertains to, then look through the documents area of that section. Most files are in alphabetic by title/subject, or chronological if papers of record like minutes. Newly added pages are summarised on the front page left margin.
This survey was conducted by the Country Development Working Group of the IGC. The objective of the survey was to lay the foundation for a better understanding of the global gliding community and of the issues relevant to the development of the soaring in emerging gliding communities.(warning large file)
