Burketown, on the Albert River, is the best place to launch for a flight in a sailplane or a hang-glider. Waves over 1000 km long and 10,000 feet high have been recorded. More than 25 pilots have now flown the Morning Glory, and many will return to attempt a flight on one of the elusive monster waves.
