Welcome to Goldfields Gliding Club 

Goldfields Gliding Club is a weekend gliding club operated on Uitsig Airfield located near Hennenman in the Freestate Province, South Africa. Our flying days are as follows:

Saturdays - 12h00 to Sunset

Sundays - 12h00 to Sunset

Public Holidays - 12h00 to Sunset (by prior arrangement)

We usually have a good social gathering after the days flying where family and friends are most welcome. Dinner is prepared by a few good cooks in our club.

The Club offer complete Glider Pilot License (GPL) training to first time pilots and current Private Pilot License (PPL) pilots. Training is done by a panel of well experienced Instructors and they can provide a conversion to powered gliders as well.

The Club Fleet can provide a member with gliders from basic training to well advanced gliding and aerobatics. Goldfields Gliding Club has the biggest Club owned Glider Fleet in South Africa. Apart from our excellent fleet, we have the most affordable club and flying rates.

We also offer Air Experience Flights that can be pre-arranged or be arranged when a visitor arrives at the club. Our current rates for Air Experience Flights is R120 for the first 15 minutes and R2 for every minute thereafter. Refer to our Duty Roster to see which of our Pilots are on duty and to our Member page for contact details. You can also contact the Club for arrangements.
