Air Experience Flight

It's Time to Start Your Adventure

You or a special friend can experience the exhilarating three-dimensional world of glider flying. These flights not only allow budding glider pilots to “try before they buy”, but are available to anyone who wishes to enjoy the experience of flying.

These flights are available for anyone who wishes to enjoy the experience of silent flight or, if you are thinking about learning to fly, to see how you like it.

Air Experience Flights are available most weeks on Friday, Saturday & Sunday.

You can choose to sit back, take photos and enjoy the ride or take the controls yourself under the guidance of an experienced pilot or both!

Glider flying, like many outdoor sports, is weather dependent. Gliders can fly in most conditions except for rain and strong winds.

If the weather forecast is not favourable for the day you have booked your flight, then we will contact you to arrange another time.

Flying Further
Gliding is a rewarding way to begin learning to fly. Going further, you can develop core skills such as controlling an aircraft, reading the weather, and making decisions in the air—all while enjoying the unique experience of silent flight.

With support from qualified instructors, you can learn at a pace that suits you and build confidence flight by flight. Whether you go on to earn a gliding qualification or explore other forms of aviation, gliding offers a memorable first step into the world of flying.
