Interested in giving gliding a go? Here’s how you can sign up for your first trip!
Joining the Society

You can join the society from our page on the Union website. You are more than welcome to come along if you are not yet a member but you can’t fly before you sign up due to our insurance.



Signing Up for a Trip

We organise all of our trips through the forum so first you'll have to register- it only takes a moment. On Monday of each week, a thread is created for the week’s trips. To sign up for a trip, post the following information on the thread:

  • Your name
  • Your membership number (If you know it)
  • Which day/s you’d like to come (Saturday, Sunday or Wednesday)
  • If you have a car we can use, and how many seats it has

 

If we don’t yet have any contact details for you, please also post a telephone number or email us to let us know how we can get in touch with you.

You can also email us to sign up for a trip, giving us the details above.



Spaces on Trips

Spaces on trips are allocated on a first come, first serve basis. The final trip list is added to the week's forum thread on Wednesday mornings and Fridays- this will show who has been allocated a space on each trip. If you've signed up for a trip,  check the thread to see whether you've been allocated a space and to find out where we're meeting.

If there is no space on a trip for you, you will be given prority on a subsequent trip.

For more information about trips and the society in general, read our About Gliding section.

We hope to see you soon!
