Our Fleet

Meet the gliding fleet, and their ugly cousins Tom and Jerry. Click on the photos for a larger image.





The Junior

This is one of the club's two fibreglass single-seaters. The Junior is an early solo single seater with few vices and ease of handling that makes it the aircraft of choice even for some of our most advanced pilots.

The ASK 21

The ASK 21 is the club's newest aircraft. It arrived from Germany and is by far the most popular glider in the fleet. The ASK 21 is a real joy to fly and a credit to those who worked so hard to get it here.

The Cirrus

The second and most advanced of the club's fibre-glass single-seaters. Probably the best aircraft in our fleet.

Jerry - Our Winch

A trailer winch designed to be towed on the highway, Jerry has recently been upgraded with a more powerful winch motor and is our primary launch winch.

Tom - Our Second Winch

Tom is a two drum winch. Each launch lasts about a minute and will take the glider to between 1,300 and 1,700 feet AGL.
