For your flight you will be with an experienced pilot, qualified to undertake these flights, who will sit in the back of one of our 2 seater gliders. You will sit in the front The glider has duplicate controls and instrumentation so you will experience the same as a pilot flying the glider solo but of course your experienced pilot will be in command and do most of the flying.
You will, conditions permitting, be offered the chance to control the glider yourself and so experience being a pilot – safe in the knowledge that you have an experienced pilot guiding you. This is optional and you can simply sit and enjoy the flight if you prefer.
The flight will last about 15 minutes and afterwards you will be presented with a certificate.
Complimentary tea and coffee is available in the Club House but we do not operate a cafe. Please bring our own picnic or refreshments if you wish.
