Cross-country flight course

Cross-country flight - the premier class of gliding

Do you fancy extensive cross-country flights? Do you want to go “properly” on a long-distance flight, but perhaps you don’t quite have the courage to do so yet?

Cross-country flight course in a two-seater

Our experienced flight instructors will take you on a route in a double seater. They explain how to find and use termics effectively. You will learn how to take your last beard with you even in the event of weak thermals in the evening.

Of course, we also refresh our knowledge of outlanding fields to ease the fear of a possible outward landing.

Folding engine instruction

Most of the gliders at the flight school are equipped with a folding engine. In the cross-country flight course we also cover the correct operation and effective use of the "calm slider".

The cross-country and aerobatics courses for 2026 are already fully booked.

When flying cross country, it is important to use the thermal options of the day of the flight, but also the huge potential that modern gliders offer tactically and skillfully to achieve the set goals.
