Description:
Most of us will at sometime have looked up on a summer's day and seen the gentle, graceful turn of a sailplane high in the sky. The fascination of silent flight, seeking thermals and climbing up to the clouds is not easily described. Nor is the achievement of managing to stay high in the sky, without an engine, for an hour or more. Above Challock there are magnificent views over the Weald of Kent.
On a clear day you can see Southend and the coast of France in one 360° turn.
