Lincolnshire Gliding Club

Lincolnshire Gliding Club is based at Strubby Airfield, Alford, Lincolnshire LN13 0DD, United Kingdom. It is about 2.5 miles north of Alford, 4 miles southwest of Mablethorpe, and 8 miles southeast of Louth, on part of the former RAF Strubby Airfield (EGCG).

Lincolnshire Gliding Club focuses on gliding training and trial lessons rather than powered aircraft training. The club’s FAQ mentions instructor-led lessons in dual-control gliders, with the chance to learn basic handling during flight, and it uses winch launches. Specific licence pathways are not listed on the public pages provided, so it is best to contact the club directly for current training options and progression details.

The club says gliding is one of the cheapest ways to fly. Its FAQ states that an adult doing three short or one long training flight in a day would typically spend about £25 to £30, while junior launch prices are lower. For current membership fees, vouchers, and lesson pricing, the club should be contacted directly.

Yes. Lincolnshire Gliding Club is a gliding club, so training and flying are member-based and organised around club operations. The club notes that members are expected to help with setup, launches, and packing away, which is typical for a volunteer-run flying club.

The available information only shows English as a training language. If you need support in another language, it is best to ask the club directly whether any additional language assistance is available.
