This is an excellent clubwhere you get a warm welcome and an really good flying experience. The scenery is wonderful, especially the Jurassic Coast Run when you get to see from Portland to Bournemouth and beyond. I recommend this club for a good day out.

A pleasant spot to stop and view some gliding whilst nibbling my sandwich, on route to elsewhere. Not a member, I just like aircraft. Must come back and enquire about tandem flights.
