All inclusive courses that get you flying a glider ....
 

Our 5 day "Flying Start" courses are designed for people who are seriously considering taking up the sport. You may have had a trial flight in the past and now wish to take your interest further before making a final decision.

 

  You'll get 1-2-1 attention from one of our qualified instructors and as much hands on flying as we can give you. We will teach every aspect of being a glider pilot, from flying to supervising and driving the retrieve tractors, to completing the flying logs as well as your own personal pilot's log book
 
The offer includes all flying, all accommodation (in our clubhouse), all meals, a text book on learning to glide ("From Passenger to Pilot"), a personal log book and temporary membership of the gliding club for 3 months. In addition, should you decide to take up the sport and join the club during your course week, We will offer a very special intruductory discount on full club membership for the balance of our menbership year (ends Feb 28th 2009)  
 
  You can check out our club via the links on the left. If you wish, bring a friend or partner. There's plenty to see and do, at Camphill or in the locality. If you've not yet tried gliding, why not book a trial lesson first. At the end of your flight you will be clearer in your mind as to whether gliding might be for you ... AND, If you book onto a residential course within 7 days of your trial flight, we will reduce your course fees by the cost of 1 trial lesson flight.
 
Your next step is to check out availability and prices. ALSO please check maximum height and weight on our Trial Flights page.
