| Eagleville Sailplanes Eagleville, TN |
- Eagleville Sailplanes is a commercial glider operation located in
beautiful Middle-Tennessee at Puckett Gliderport (50M)
approximately 30 miles south of Nashville. We have the warm
atmosphere of a tight-knit club.
We have operated gliders since the 1950's when Garland Pack
purchased Army surplus training gliders (TG-3)'s for $15 each and
began operations - and have operated from our field in Eagleville
for 40 years. Numerous pilots have enjoyed learning to soar with us
including many nationally ranked pilots and a 5 time National Open
Class Champion.
We cater to those interested in soaring for recreation - and
specialize in advanced cross-country training for competition
minded pilots.
Our operations include rentals, lessons, rides, and tows!
