Take to the skies on a gliding lesson at the controls of a K13 or K21 training glider and experience the peace, tranquillity and exhilaration of thermal drifting. Following a safety briefing, you'll accompany your BGA licensed instructor to the cockpit of the dual controlled glider, capable of flight at 48 knots. Once familiar with the controls and instruments of the glider, and safely strapped in, the glider is hooked to a tug aircraft and towed up to an altitude of 2000 feet. At this point, the pilot pulls the release handle and the glider is flying free! When you are ready, the pilot hands control of the glider over to you. Together you'll search the skies for the perfect thermal to keep you airborne for longer, before gently drifting back to the airfield for a perfect landing. And don't forget to take a camera on your gliding lesson - the views are fantastic at 2000 feet!

Floating through the skies in virtual silence - gliding is the ultimate in relaxed flying and certainly an ambition of many people to achieve. This is your chance to fly! After receiving your full briefing on the flight ahead, its time to climb aboard and strap in! Your glider will be hooked up to a tug aircraft and towed to 2000 feet, far better than short winch launch experiences. Watch as the tug pulls you and your instructor way up into the blue. At 2000 feet the instructor will pull the release handle so that you experience the unique pleasures of gliding. Your instructor will demonstrate the controls before you take control yourself and search around the skies for the odd thermal to keep you up longer! Soon it will be time to return to the airfield by floating down for a perfect landing.
