Welcome to nugc.net - Nottingham University Gliding Club's home on the web
Welcome to all returning members and to any new or potential members. We aim to make our club as friendly and informative as possible, so here you can find out almost anything you need to know about gliding and our club as a whole. There is also a Forum (open to all) for general discussion, and a Mailing List (also open to all) to keep up to date with important events/happenings in the club.
If there's anything you'd like to know about or feel you'd like to join the club, then please feel free to email the club president at president@nugc.net

A Word From The President
Welcome to the NUGC website. My name is Joseph Bull, and I'm your President. That means very little - the more important members of the committee are the Flying Organiser, Dave Calder (07765 771680 - flyingorganiser@nugc.net) and the social secretary, Rich Thomas (07841 525092 - social@nugc.net). These are the people who actually organise stuff that happens, so they are the people to talk to if you want to come along flying, or join us in one of our socials.
We do all sorts of flying at NUGC. If you've never flown before, that's great. This is the cheapest and best way for you to get into aviation. We have our own two seat glider, and have access to loads of experienced instructors. On the other hand, if you have flown before, or have been gliding for a while, then that's great too. We also have our own single seat glider, and access to RAF Cranwell's extensive fleet, so we can help you on your way with your progression.
Feel free to have a read through our website, and a browse through the forum. It's got lots of useful information on it, but if you have any specific questions, email me (president@nugc.net, or grab me at our regular social in Mooch (Every Tuesday at 7:30pm), and ask away.
Hope to see you all on the airfield soon!
