Due to the flight limitations of our gliders, there is a weight limit of 16 stones (102 kilos) & a height limit of 6’3″ (1.9m). There is no upper age limit but you must be able to get into & out of the glider. There is no minimum age to fly P2 in a glider & you can legally solo at 14 years. If you are under 16 years old we will require a parental consent form to be signed. If in doubt please contact the office for advice.
