Gliding is much cheaper than other forms of flying and it probably much cheaper than your expect. The costs depends on how long you take to learn, and this varies from person to person. The main costs in learning to glide are:
- Annual Membership – the cost of joining the club
- Launch Charge – the cost of getting the glider into the air
- Flying Charge – a charge for your time in the air
We have discount rates for children and spouses.
