🌤️ Winter Flying at Cambridge Gliding Centre ❄️ Friday brought crisp, bright skies and good conditions for some winter flying! 🛫❄️ The low winter sun painted the horizon with a stunning golden glow, adding an extra layer of magic to the views from above. Winter may be chilly, but it offers some of the most beautiful and peaceful flying experiences. Whether you're a seasoned pilot or dreaming of your first flight, this season shows just how breathtaking gliding can be. Come and join us to experience the magic of winter flying for yourself! Thanks to @sjpearcenet for the great photos. #CambridgeGlidingCentre #WinterFlying

On Remembrance Sunday we laid a wreath on the RAF Gransden Lodge airfield memorial by the windmill in Great Gransden. The inscription reads: Recognising the sacrifice of the 447 members of the Royal Air Force and Royal Canadian Air Force who lost their lives in operations from RAF Gransden Lodge 1942-1945 fighting for our freedom. We will remember them. The members of Cambridge Gliding Club.

On Sunday 3rd November, Cambridge Gliding Centre hosted a fantastic evening of fireworks followed by a hearty serving of bangers & mash. The display was spectacular, and the food was just as impressive — a classic to end a great night. A fun time was had by all, with plenty of laughs and delicious food to go around. Thanks to all the members who joined us! ✨ #cambridgeglidingcentre #FireworksAndBangers

Started off with a foggy morning, but by afternoon the airfield was buzzing with life! 🌫️☀️ Huge thanks to everyone who joined in the action and helped turn it into an awesome Friday. ✈️✨ Can’t wait to do it all again next week! Photo credit: @glidingcc

It's always training season at Cambridge Gliding Centre!

On Saturday CGC had a blast at the final Duxford Air Show of 2024! Our Perkoz, flown in by Shaun Murdoch was on display by the Control Tower. Special highlight: the Red Arrows flying in alongside a Spitfire Mk IX, piloted by Paul Bonhomme, who’s also a CGC member. Big thanks to the Duxford team for their amazing support. Can’t wait for next season! ✈️
