Glider Flight

Trial Membership (includes Glider flight)

Our Trial flight package starts with a glider flight and includes a three month membership of Lasham for you to find out what gliding is really like.

After a full pre-flight briefing your glider, with a fully qualified instructor at the controls, is towed behind a powered aeroplane to 2,500 feet. Your instructor will give you a chance to do some of the flying, feeling the special kind of freedom only glider pilots know.

It's great value and the experience of a lifetime.

Your three month membership means you can take more glider flights at our normal member rates as well as enjoying the social facilities of the club.

Not surprisingly many people go on to become full club members, and if you do this within your three month trial membership period there will be no entrance fee to pay.

The Trial flight costs just £80.
