Wolds Gliding Club

The Wolds Gliding Club has been providing flying training for over 50 years and has given thousands of people the chance to experience the thrill of unpowered flight. With a modern fleet, first class facilities and our own huge airfield we pride ourselves as one of the top gliding clubs in the UK. Our friendly and experienced instructors are on hand to provide all the training you need to progress to solo standard and beyond. We offer the chance for anyone to experience gliding through a number of day membership options or why not buy a trial flight voucher for someone as a unique gift for any occasion?

Situated on the edge of the scenic Yorkshire Wolds we benefit from thermal and wave flying with the club height record standing at 27,000ft. During the summer we have a keen group of regular cross country pilots with the current club record standing at 750km in one flight. In 2013 the WGC fielded 3 pilots representing Great Britain in international competitions, along with 2 team captains.
