See the beautiful vista of mid Kent as you move silently through the sky! Gliding here at Kent Gliding Club, is a fantastic experience which you will remember and cherish for ever. The team here are all very experienced and if you have never been in a glider before, will easily put you at your ease, and share their enthusiasm for this great sport. To be towed up by the tug is an experience in itself, and then when released at height, it is immediately akin to flying free like a bird, and watching the miniature houses and trees fade away into the horizon before you. Without the sound of an engine, and with an unobstructed view before you, at some point in your flight the instructor will give you control and guide you in turning, lifting higher, and shallow diving to increase airspeed. The landing too is so exciting, as you turn towards the field and zoom lower, skimming the treetops as the instructor comes in for the perfect touch down. Take your camera or Go Pro, and take you family too, the kids will love watching and seeing you whizz around the sky, be tight there to see you off and to welcome you back. A great day combined with a picnic or tea in the clubhouse - enjoy your day!

Visited with my husband who had a half day gliding experience package booked. He had two flights with experienced pilot Kenny McPhee. We were both made extremely welcome. Kenny was extremely knowledgeable and passed on a lot of his knowledge to my husband as well as quite a few instructions which my husband did his best to follow ! We can’t speak highly enough of the experience. Go and give it a try and if you can ask for Kenny!

Bought as a Christmas present for my husband. He had an amazing time while me, the children and dog all watched from the field with an ice cream from the cafe. Staff could not be more welcoming and friendly. I would highly recommend. Thanks so much

My husband bought the gliding experience for me and I chose the Kent gliding club due to the prompt response of the club secretary, and I was glad I did. I was greeted by the secretary and as we were early sat outside the clubhouse with a coffee watching other fliers. My instructor Glen then gave me an explanation of the glider controls, helped me get kitted out with a parachute and we were off. The aero tow take off was great, and the views over kent were amazing. Even though it was a cloudy day we found enough thermal to stay up for quite a while. I had a go at flying which was enjoyable though I wasn't much good at it! The landing was bumpy but fun, all in all a friendly little club and a great experience

Not only is the place brilliant, not only are the gliders ridiculously cool, the people went way above and beyond the call of duty to make it the best day ever. I can not recommend this place highly enough. I will definitely be going back.

Wow - absolutely brilliant. The chap (Les) who was my pilot was excellent. Explained everything I needed to know clearly and thoroughly. He allowed me to pilot the glider for a while instructing me as we went. Shame the weather was not a little clearer, but that was no ones fault obviously. Still had great views, just not quite as far as France. We were taken into the air by a small plane and then let go to fly......................

Welcome on arrival extremely poor...I wandered around the clubhouse and hanger trying to find someone, who eventually arrived 20 minutes after I was told to report!!! No breakfast or lunch available so be careful when you visit this venue...packed food highly recommended.

After being kept waiting for a disproportionate time, it was eventually flying time and it was an interesting experience after all the hard work expected from all to prepare despite the cost! Typical of small airfields maybe, but the cost should be adjusted to reflect this inconvenience!

The briefing was, well, very casual, surprisingly, but I suppose arguably adequate. I advise that you learn how to properly escape and pull a parachute beforehand!

Launches just about delivered, but timings were very inconsistent between paying customers! Some had 15 mins others 30+ mins in the air! The balance was unfair for the cost!

A life experience, but shop around...you probably can get better vfm and service.

A joint Christmas present from our Son, this was truly a day to remember. We were met on-site by Pete, our Pilot/Instructor (Chief Instructor of this club) who’s mild relaxed manner put us at ease and made us feel comfortable. In just a one day course, you get shown and explained in clear detail the simple controls and actions required to fly a glider. You do actually fly the glider yourself, which I found to be a real privilege. As with any activity like this in this country, the weather is all important. Luckily for us on this day the weather was perfect. Visibility was superb and once the ground had warmed up enough, there were plenty of thermals (rising warmer air) around to be utilised which provided protracted gliding experiences. We both had goes with the two different methods of launch.
1. Being towed by a small ‘Tug’ aircraft up to the appropriate height and then released.
2. Attached to a winch which literally catapults you from the ground upwards in an almost vertical trajectory.
The Kent Gliding Club is where you should go if at all interested in trying this activity. Thoroughly recommended.
