The Pennine Soaring Club may not be the largest Hang gliding and Paragliding club in the UK
but we're one of the most active.
We have great flying sites to cover most wind directions with some of the best XC potential in the UK...
... and welcome visiting pilots to fly The Pennines with open arms. (See our site guide).
Although we currently do not run a strict Members Only policy we would rather have you on our team.
Not only because of the benefits to you, but also because over the years we have negotiated agreements with farmers
and landowners and would like to keep them as happy with flying as we are.
Edenfield landing field will be closed for lambing from 1st April to 25th May
