Experience the total tranquility of soaring and circling on the thermals, drifting silently on the wind in a dual control glider. After a short briefing from your British Gliding Association instructor, it's time to take to the skies for an unforgettable flight. You'll take the controls during your flight, and if you get hooked, this first lesson counts towards a Glider Pilot's certificate.

Gliding Lesson Discovery:
  • One-to-one training from a BGA licensed instructor
  • Introduction to gliding, safety and controls
  • One flight of 15 to 30 minutes (according to weather conditions) towed aloft by a tug aircraft.
  • Experience gift box including smart wallet, personalised voucher, message card and single use camera
  • PA cover to a value of £50,000 plus cancellation indemnity
What happens on the day:
When you arrive, you will be asked to complete a membership application form (under 18’s will require parental consent on this form). Generally you will asked to hand in the voucher on the day, so remember to take this with you as it is your form of payment for your lesson. You will then be briefed by your instructor before the flight

Most gliding clubs are owned and run by their members. Your introduction to gliding will often include helping out with various tasks associated with gliding – keeping the log, preparing to launch gliders etc, whilst awaiting your turn to fly. Gliding is very much a team effort and this is why it is such a sociable sport.
