Description of Bannerdown Gliding Club
Licence Nº not providedWelcome to Bannerdown Gliding club
We operate from Keevil airfield, which is situated in Wiltshire between Devizes and Westbury. We are an RAF GSA Gliding Club, affiliated with RAF Lyneham. We welcome personnel from all areas of the armed services, as well as non service people whether you have flying experience or not.
All pilots planning to arrive by air please make note the airfield is 'PPR' and you must follow the guidelines detailed on our location webpage.
Bannerdown Gliding Club is situated just north of the Westbury White Horse ridge which allows for great soaring conditions. This provides excellent opportunities from both the ridge and for thermals. Quite often the local hills produce beautifully smooth wave lift!
Keevil airfield is a large and safe environment for training. It offers opportunities for trial lessons on an individual or group basis. Our 'Trial Lesson' vouchers make great gifts!
Did you know that gliders in the UK can travel over 1000Km in a single flight? They can fly as high as most airliners and can do aerobatics to rival any air show?
Gliding is one of the purest, most affordable, accessible and more enjoyable ways to experience flight.
