Grob Twin II Acro

A recent addition to the club's fleet, this modern German two seat glider is made from glass fibre and has an excellent standard of performance, whether flown by two people or single handed. It is used both for training club members and for providing trial lessons and mini courses for temporary members. It is comfortable and and easy to handle. Despite its size, it is easy to assemble and to dismantle so that it can be put in a trailer in a matter of minutes, making it an ideal glider for serious cross country flying.

Sport Vega

Our new single seat fibreglass acquisition has sparked a great deal of interest from our solo pilots.

Schleicher Ka8

The club owns two of these popular single seat gliders. They provide a natural progression for the student pilot who has just qualified to fly solo on one of the clubs K7s. Easy to handle and with good soaring characteristics, the K8s provide the first step towards solo flying in more advanced types of glider. Most club members will make their first cross country flights in a K8.

Slingsby T.21 Sedburgh

This vintage glider with an open cockpit and side by side seating is over 50 years old but is still highly popular on warm days during the summer. Many older pilots started their gliding careers flying in gliders like this and, despite their age, there are still many T21s around maintained by enthusiasts who enjoy flying with the wind in their hair.
