I thoroughly enjoyed my gliding experience and I had great weather which was an added bonus. The people at The Vale of the Whitehorse Gliding Club were extremely friendly and informative. My gliding lesson was fanastic and my instructer provided me with the opportunity to take the controls which amazing. Many thanks to all at the club for hosting a wonderful afternoon. I hope to return sometime in the future.

It was a fabulous experience , all the staff , pilot, ground staff etc were very friendly. Took my two little grandchildren ,age 5 7 . Their day was made when the pilot of the aircraft towing the glider allowed them to sit in the seat when it was stationary , a memory theyll remember forever ,like me ,and my memory of the day .Thank you

A really fabulous gliding experience provided by a knowledgeable passionate team who made me feel welcome safe from start to finish. Everything was well organised geared to the individual. No big crowds, no upselling, just excellent personal attention. My instructor Milan was patient informative obviously loves every minute in the sky The running of the club clearly involves a huge team effort provided by committed volunteers, young old. Would highly recommend.

The weather was very warm but I did have too wait over an hour pass my slot. The foam you sit on in the glider parachute looked quite old.

Wow what a fantastic experience, would highly recommend. Had to rebook a few times but obviously its a weather dependent experience. I would definitely do this again. My pilot Milan explained the process and asked if I wanted to fly myself.

Fantastic team who were welcoming, friendly, super organised and professional. They couldnt have done more for my sister who flew. They towed extra long distance so the white horse at Pewsey could be viewed from the air. Can 100 recommend and it is fabulous value for money. The experience is a must. Thanks very much to you all.

Wonderful experience. The pilot was informative and reassuring, as there was a fair bit of turbulence on the day. I was sat in the front which was exhilarating and a great view. The team were friendly and I felt safe in their hands. Thanks for a great experience, I would definitely do it again.
