How to Book

We book flights in the morning and the afternoon on Wednesdays and at the weekend. The first trial lesson is usually 9:30 am and the last at 5:30 pm.

Bookings made before the end of May can usually be accomodated with only one or two weeks notice. Bookings made for the busy Summer months; June, July and August may require two or more weeks notice, depending on how busy we are at the time. We advise you to make your booking as soon as you have decided upon a day and date. Winter bookings can often be made on the day.

If your flight is cancelled due to unsatisfactory weather, we will contact you and a suitable alternative date booked.

Vouchers are valid for six months from the date of issue. If your voucher becomes out of date and no bookings have been made, then the voucher should be returned to the Gliding Club requesting an extension.

Price

An Aerotow to 2,000ft with a flight of up to 25mins, depending on the weather conditions, costs £85.00
