The 800 number for Kitty Hawk Kites to make reservations for hang
gliding lessons is 1-800-334-4777.

A friend and I have tried to arrange lessons twice.  The first time,
the trip we took was pretty rainy and since we had already gotten
soaked biking from Ocracoke to Kill Devil Hills, we opted out of even
asking about hang gliding.  The second time, Thanksgiving weekend, we
got to the place not long after they opened and they were already
booked for the day.  People make reservations months in advance.  

The same place sells (maybe also rents) stunt kites which are great
fun to fly on Jockey's Ridge.  They also do paragliding.  A place in
the same little shopping center, Kitty Hawk Sports, rents open kayaks
for kayaking in the sound, as well as various other fun water toys.
