✈️ Let’s look back at some brilliant moments from our last Community Day!

These events mean so much to us. They give our members, families, friends and the wider community the chance to come together, enjoy the atmosphere and share our passion for flying.

✈️ Before and after her flight—and that smile says it all!

There were plenty of smiles before take-off and even bigger ones after landing. It’s always wonderful to see someone enjoy the excitement of gliding and experience the beautiful Norfolk countryside from a completely different perspective.

If you’ve never tried gliding, what are you waiting for? Get in touch with us today to find out how you can take to the skies from Tibenham Airfield! 💙

Ever thought about gliding… but assumed it was expensive or time-consuming?

Gliding isn’t one single, all-or-nothing commitment.
For some, it’s a relaxed weekend hobby. For others, it’s a pathway into aviation, engineering or competitive flying. And for many, it starts with something very simple: a seat in a glider and a big smile 😊

Did you know?
✔️ Many clubs offer winch launches from around £10-£15 once you join up
✔️ You can get involved at many different levels
✔️ You don’t need to own an aircraft, or give up every weekend

However you’re curious about flying, there’s a way in.
And it might be more accessible than you think.
