Kent Flying EveningThursday 5th July
Registration from 4:30pm with first flight from 5:00pm
Kent Gliding Club - Challock, Ashford TN25 4DR
http://www.kent-gliding-club.co.uk/flying_evenings.phpHow do you fancy an evening of silently soaring above the garden of england in a glider?
This TLF evening flight will start with a briefing and explanation of controls over a cup of tea and then we will be taken to the launch point and we will each be flown in turn. During the flight you will have the opportunity to fly the glider if you wish.
The evening is in the form of a trial lesson so you will be entitled to 90 days memebership of the club. This means you can come back on any club flying day and fly at club rates.For just £22.50!Please sign up below.The airfield will be an ideal location to get a region photo of all our cars together (so bring the Lotus)

Kent monthly meet is the first Tuesday of the month at the The Moat, Wrotham from 7:30pm

You'll be fine I'm sure, they'll make sure you've got a skinny pilot.

:-) Obviously I wasn't talking a bout me but was concerned about a friend who doesn't want to be named. Think I'll join you though.

From the club:
The height and weight restrictions for gliding are 6’ 2” and 16 stone.
Couldn't tell you how strict they are...

If I was there, I'd be in this. Always wanted to have a go in a glider.
