Flying with the birds!


I'd like to organise a gliding evening at Lasham later this summer. The normal cost is £75 per flight however if we can get a group of at least 6 interested people this reduces to £40. If you'd to join in, please email me at: steve.pullen@virginmedia.co.uk by 8th June and I can start to book a suitable slot. If there are any dates that you will be unavailable please indicate in your email.
Each flight is actually a gliding lesson. It starts with a tow behind an aeroplane up to 2500ft. Your instructor will be in control so this is your chance to enjoy the view across to the Isle of Wight on a good day or look down on the picturesque Hampshire countryside. When the tow is released you will have the opportunity to try your hand at the controls, under your instructor's expert supervision of course. Each glider flight will typically last about 20 minutes.
