club fleet

The K21 is the main two seat club trainer. It is used for trial lessons, day courses, and normal club instruction. We have seven K21s, EQR, FBV, FYF, JWD, KEJ, EPD and GBF. They are basically the same, being able to accomodate a wide range of pilot sizes.

The K13, (HUD) is also a two seater. It is primarily used for club flying and for teaching more advanced exercises such as spinning.

The Club Duo (LGC) is used mostly for cross country training. It is a modern high performance glider, with a glide angle of 44 to 1! This is the same type as the glider used in the new version of "The Thomas Crown Affair".

Once you have learned to fly you progress on to flying in a single seat glider. We have three K23s, EVW, EVX, EVY. They have all been recently refinished and sport colourful and distinctive flashes.
Most pilots will do their first cross country flights in a K23.

Once a pilot has achieved their Silver 'C' badge they can convert to flying in HBB. This high performance single seater has a best glide angle of 43 to 1, very similar to the Duo Discus.

A single seat aerobatic glider for pilots wishing to fly more advanced aerobatic maneuvers than a K21 would allow.
