VECTIS GLIDING CLUB

The Vectis Gliding Club  offers trial instructional flights to people of all ages who are interested in experiencing the joys of silent flight.  We fly on the Isle of Wight from  Bembridge Airport every weekend and bank holidays.

This is the perfect venture for anyone who has an interest in aviation, or simply enjoys taking part in adrenaline-filled activities. If you're keen to see some amazing views from the sky over the Isle of Wight, then don't miss out on this amazing experience. Our trial flights promise an unforgettable excursion that you're sure to enjoy.

If you're not an experienced pilot, then this is a great opportunity to experience what it is like to be on a silent flight. If you love the excitement of gliding or playing tense games of Party poker, then you won't want to miss out on this thrilling trip. If you enjoy your instructional lesson, then you may even want to learn to fly yourself

From March to October we also fly on Wednesdays

People under 18 years of age will require written consent of a parent or guardian.

If you are less than 7 stone (45kg) or more than 16 stone 4lb (103.5 kg approx.), you may not be able to fly. Also very tall people, more than 6ft 4ins, may have difficulty fitting into the cockpit.

Bookings are not all ways possible, unfortunately we can not book the weather.
