What to expect from this Glider flying experience...

If you’ve never flown in a glider before, this is the perfect way to try it for the first time! This voucher from Buy A Gift offers a half day of flying, including four winch-launched flights of up to around 20 minutes each. Gliding is a completely unique aviation experience, and with this experience at Kenley in Surrey, you’re guaranteed some of the most stunning aerial views in the country.

Catapulting into the sky from a powerful winch, the glider employs its huge wingspan to catch the slightest currents and thermal updrafts, allowing it to stay airborne for a surprisingly long time. With no engines or propellers, the only sound you’ll hear is the wind rushing past – it really is as close as you can get to flying like a bird.

Even experienced aviators will find gliding a surprising and addictive new way to fly. Highly recommended as a gift for any aviation afficionado, or as a first giant leap along the road to a Glider Pilots Licence. And at just £143, this is one of the most affordable lessons of its type available anywhere!
