Welcome to Devon and Somerset Gliding Club

From Mon 12th April 2021,  flying training operations restart at North Hill, following the Government roadmap for the return of recreational aviation and subject to DSGC Risk assessments.

As well as solo flying, two-seater and training flights are now permitted. Please note that the clubroom remains closed, but the open marquee can be used and North Hill Cafe will be providing a takeaway service on normal Club days.

After this extended pause, we will be focussing on getting our members back in the air, and therefore Trial Flights will recommence at a later date, expired vouchers have been extended.  The Booking system will be re-enabled when we can restart Trial flights, in the meantime all vouchers are sold with 18 months validity.

 The Devon and Somerset Gliding Club is the largest gliding club in the South West and has allowed its members to enjoy the magic of gliding for 60 years. We have a modern fleet of club gliders, good club facilities and a team of BGA qualified instructors who provide training to help new members let slip the surly bonds of earth and dance the skies on laughter-silvered wings. The club is open on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays.

We offer trial lessons and flying courses for the aspiring glider pilot, as well as conversion or advanced courses for experienced pilots. Whatever your skill level and flying experience, Devon and Somerset Gliding Club (DSGC) is the place for you, and the challenges and rewards keep on coming, whatever level you reach.
