UCL Gliding Club provides easy access to the incredible sport of gliding. Winch launch for just £10.4!
No experience or medical statement is required to join and instruction lessons are provided free of charge.
You will mostly receive training in our very own ASK21 two-seat training glider, with no soaring fees! We also own two single seat gliders, an ASW19 and a K6, for pilots who reach solo standard. We fly every weekends at the reputable RAF Halton airfield all year round (weather permitting, including during the spring and summer breaks).
For an opportunity to get to know other UCL Gliding Club members, join us for our fun socials. During the spring and summer months, expeditions are held to other gliding sites such as our annual expedition to the renowned Portmoak airfield in Scotland.
Membership Types
Before scheduling your flight, you need to purchase a membership. We offer two types of memberships:
Standard Membership: Flight slots through full year. New members receive one priority flight opportunity. Standard members also have the benefit of participation in social events and other club activities(Costs may apply).
Competitive Membership: This membership is for those who want to become solo pilots, obtain a license and progress futher. This membership will give you more flight access and participation in competitions(though not guaranteed, as gliding is subject to weather, coach availability, aircraft condition, etc...). Competitive members also get free access to additional activities (such as visits to aviation museums and gliding exhibitions) and receive a set of club gear, merch and logbook(please request them by email). Once you qualify for solo flights, you can use flight slots without restriction.(Costs apply for launch).
