WEEK HOLIDAY course

Every year we endeavour to run at least one week holiday course during the summer. No previous experience is necessary, however if you have flown before we will adapt your course accordingly. In addition to ground and flight training you will participate in helping to launch gliders and handling them on the ground. This both enhances your involvement and keeps costs to a minimum.
Please Contact Bob Pye for further information, alternative dates and to book.

The course fee includes ten flights which should give a total flight time of about five hours depending on the weather.

Local Bed & Breakfast. Please book this directly with your host.
