Staffordshire Gliding Club


Gliding Courses Starting from £150 Available most weeks
The course includes pre and post flight briefings so that you can get the most from your time in the air. Subject to weather, availability and your own preferences, you will take up to 3 aerotows or 9 winch launches or a combination of both to provide between 45 and 60 minutes in the air. As gliding depends on mutual help, you will be in a team of people including fellow course members and full club members.

The course fee includes all tuition, launching, flying and 3 months membership of the Club, during which time you can return for further flights at inclusive rates of £45 or £15 for aerotow and winch launches respectively.

Gliders are limited in the height and weight of people they can carry - no more than 1.95m (6ft 5in) and 102kg (16 stones).

These flights are instructional and intended as an introduction to gliding. Whilst we do everything to make it as safe as possible, there is an element of risk inherent in any adventure sport such as gliding.
