During the summer months we can provide an evening with a real difference for
your company, club or simply a group of friends. We can normally accommodate
groups of between 6 and 25 people depending on the time of year.
Flying can be arranged every evening of the week throughout the summer with
the exception of a Saturday evening.
Group co-ordinator
Appoint a group co-ordinator to
organise the group, encourage other members of your organisation or party to
participate in the evening's flying, collect the money, etc. Your group
co-ordinator, or whoever they nominate, flies free of charge.
The flight
After a group safety briefing, you will fly in
a dual control, two seat training glider, with a fully qualified instructor, who
will explain the instruments and how to use the controls to fly the
aircraft. You will then have the opportunity to handle the glider under
the supervision of your instructor while enjoying the stunning scenery of
Hampshire. Your flight to 2500' and back will typically last between 10 -
15 minutes.
After the flight
When visiting the airfield for a trial
flight you automatically become a temporary member of Lasham Gliding Society for
period of one month and as such you are welcome to use our facilities during
that period. Our restaurant and bar open every day throughout the summer for
meals and snacks. Large groups can be catered for by pre-booking through
our catering manager.
With your temporary membership you will be able to return to Lasham to enjoy
further flights, this time at member rates. We are open seven days a week.

Please Note
No alcohol must be consumed before flight. Your instructor will refuse to fly
with you if he suspects you have been drinking.
