We launch from our home at the Middletown Gliderport, in Lake County, situated in the greater Napa Valley Wine Country.Incredible views and colorful rural vistas showcase vineyards, the largest natural fresh water lake in California, geothermal steam clouds produced by nearby geysers, and even the remnants of an ancient volcano.Soar above it all in a sleek glider plane. Flying conditions are superb year-round. Get away from it all as you soar high above the panoramic scenery, with a breathtaking view few others can enjoy. It’s the Adventure of a Lifetime, something you will be talking about for years to come! Call for reservations. « less

From the moment we pulled in to Crazy Creek's glider port in Middletown, CA, we were made to feel like we were old friends by Connie and Jim Indrebo Sr. Jim Jr., our skillful glider pilot, treated us to a spectacular adventure, complete with wing-overs and a humorous zero-gravity demonstration with a water bottle that made my daughter shriek with...

This glider ride with Connie and Jim was a highlight of our trip to Wine Country, CA and Northern California. It's so smooth and peaceful and lovely with a couple of thrills thrown in for good measure... We highly recommend the full 40 minute tour! More

Our group of 7 all agree that this was one of the very best outings we've ever experienced! Owners Jim and Connie were simply amazing. So helpful and accomodating with the coordination of our bbq picnic, and their friendliness really made this experience with them a "family affair". They both were the glider pilots and was able to "customize" each... More

About a fifty minute drive from Yountville. Take the motion sickness meds before you go because the drive is winding and the flight may cause some nausea, too. Connie and Jim are gracious and accommodating. Once they were airborne, our boys asked, "How long have you been doing this?". Connie replied, "About a week, but I think I have the... More

What an amazing experience - I'm so glad we did it. Now I truely know what it feels like to take... More

First off Jim and Connie Indrebo are sweet people, calm and light hearted! I took my daughter who's turning 40 this year and WOW what a fantastic time we had! We flew for a brilliant 30 minutes. Jim asked if we'd like to have, " a little fun". And as soon as we said yes, we were diving, spiraling, dipping... More

The airfield is about a 45 minute drive from Yountville, but the experience is well worth the drive. Jim and Connie are great people. Jim flew the tow plane, and Connie flew with me in the glider. Connie is a great instructor, and really helped me learn the dynamics of glider flying. I had taken a few lessons in a... More

Jim and Connie, who run Crazy Creek Air Adventures (in Middletown, CA), are very hospitable, down-to-earth people and very experienced pilots (you need 2 - - - one for the glider and one for the plane that pulls it). My wife and I enjoyed our soaring at 6,000+ feet over the Napa Valley countryside. Costly ($239 for 2 people for... More

Treated myself to a sail plane ride for my birthday and it was one of the best gifts I've ever given myself. Jim and Connie are extremely friendly and what a great pilot! The views are wonderful and it is a truly unique experience. If you've been forever saying that you'd like to soar in a sail plane, wait no... More
