The Devon and Somerset Gliding Club is affiliated to the British Gliding Association, based at North Hill Airfield, lying just to the west of Dunkeswell Airfield, in the Blackdown Hills National Landscape (the new name for Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty).

The Club generally operates at the weekends and on Wednesdays and Thursdays. During the summer season, there is a series of course weeks, during which the Club operates all week.

DSGC welcomes visitors from other gliding clubs, with or without gliders, motor gliders and selflaunching gliders. North Hill Airfield is not generally available to powered aircraft and in any event only on condition of prior permission obtained from the Club’s CFI or his representative.

To enable you to fly at North Hill we require you to provide a copy of:

Your SPL (or equivilent)
Your Medical Declaration (or equivilent)
Your Insurance Certificate (if you wish to fly your own Glider)
