Please read the Bannerdown Gliding Club statement regarding the activities of the club during the current COVID-19 situation here.

We operate from Keevil airfield, which is situated in Wiltshire between Devizes and Westbury. We are an RAF GSA Gliding Club, affiliated with RAF Brize Norton. We welcome personnel from all areas of the armed services, as well as non service people whether you have flying experience or not.

All pilots planning to arrive by air please make note the airfield is 'PPR' and you must follow the guidelines detailed on our location webpage.

Bannerdown Gliding Club is situated just north of the Westbury White Horse ridge which allows for great soaring conditions. This provides excellent opportunities from both the ridge and for thermals. Quite often the local hills produce beautifully smooth wave lift!

Keevil airfield is a large and safe environment for training. It offers opportunities for trial lessons on an individual or group basis. Our 'Trial Lesson' vouchers make great gifts! For more information please view the Lessons Section. Our FAQ page is also helpful.
