The competition will conclude on Sunday afternoon when a winner will be crowned.
Residents have been encouraged to head out and see what gliding is all about for themselves, chat with the pilots and watch them being towed up into the skies before coming in for a fast landing later in the day.
The event is expected to inject $80,000 into Leeton's economy at a time of year when it is mostly flat after Christmas.
