Important booking notes:

RESTRICTIONS

AGE: To go solo the pilot must be 16, but lessons can be taught from 14 upwards.  There is no upper age limit but please be aware that the participant will need sufficient dexterity to climb into and out of a glider.

SIZE:  Due to the configuration of the gliders and controls, minimum height is 5', maximum 6'4''.  Minimum weight is 7 stone, maximum 16 stone.

HEALTH:  It will not be possible for you to fly with an instructor if you suffer from epilepsy, fainting or certain physical or mental disabilities. There are additional requirements once you go solo, generally requiring your GP to sign a medical declaration; this is usually a simple process only requiring their signature. Contact the office if you require further information.

ALCOHOL: We are not able to fly anybody who is under the influence of alcohol.  The permissible levels for flying are much more stringent than for driving a car.  As a simple rule, please ensure that you do not have any alcohol before flying.
