Gliding is a sport that is both beautiful and exciting. Nothing can quite match
the thrill of soaring silently over the countryside; literally getting a birds-eye
view of Cambridgeshire and beyond.
Gliding is suitable for all ages from 14 upward. You can fly solo from the age of
16, and the challenges and rewards keep on coming, whatever level you reach. We
encourage young people into this fulfilling sport with sponsorship schemes and actively
support the British Gliding Association (BGA) Junior Gliding sponsorship scheme.
Older members enjoy flying with us into retirement.
Safety is paramount. The BGA, to which Cambridge Gliding Centre is affiliated, governs the sport in the UK. CGC procedures fully comply with BGA standards
and you will fly with BGA approved instructors during your training.
