Experience the thrill of gliding above the beautiful Moray countryside during an Air Experience flight in a two-seater glider with a qualified instructor. We offer gliding training from complete beginner to all levels, and we welcome everyone interested in trying the sport. We fly every Saturday and Sunday, all year round, plus Wednesday evenings from May to August, weather permitting (this means not in poor visibility, rain or very strong winds), and at other times by arrangement.
We operate an online booking system for trial lessons. These are available with the pre-payment of a voucher that can be purchased online. Each voucher has an individual identity number that is used to make a booking on our online system or by telephone. Trial lessons are usually available on the first Saturday and third Sunday of each month from March to October.
Come along and have a go!
What we do best:
