Our Squad now includes over 30 pilots! If you would like to be part of this amazing group of ladies that are constantly working towards improving their own cross country experience and aiming towards gaining a place on the Women's British Team, then please fill out the application below.
If you have some experience in flying competitions at Regional level or above, and you want to develop into a National or International pilot, please apply to join the Squad.
Training for 2026 will start in February with webinar trainings that will happen over zoom during the week in the evening. There will be a squad development week that will happen alongside the Women's Team training week, dates will be announced in early 2026. We're also offering XC coaching with Tim Robson at the 20 metre Nationals this year! See this page for more info, and to apply.
Gliding definitely gave me self-confidence. Would've never thought I'd be brave enough to fly an aircraft on my own.
