Gliding Taster Flight

Enjoy being launched between 1000 and 1500 feet into the air in a glider and soar across the countryside. A gliding taster experience will give you an idea of what it is like to fly in a glider.

If you've ever wanted to experience what it's like to be as free as a bird, then you'll absolutely love these Gliding experiences; a day that you will never forget. These Gliding Experiences will see you soaring through the skies, gliding over sweeping, stunning views whilst seated in glass topped glider, meaning that you won't miss an inch of incredible landscape when in the air.

The day starts as soon as you arrive at the venue, when you'll be met by a professional gliding instructor who will brief you on what the day holds, as well as telling you all you need to know about the glider you'll be taking flight in. Shortly after, you'll take to the sky in the glider, learning how to fly the aircraft as you go. Learn how to manoeuvre such a wonderful craft and then sit back and enjoy the views around and below you as your instructor guides it through the sky, 1500ft in the air.
