Plenty of water
The airfield is very exposed. Easy to get dehydrated, especially in summer. Bring a bottle at minimum.
Food
Don't rely on food being available. Bring your own, and some change in case bacon rolls are on offer!
Suitable footwear
No flip flops. Boots strongly recommended in winter or after wet weather. Consider a spare pair of trainers.
Warm clothing
In winter this is critical. The airfield is exposed - subtract 3-4°C from the forecast. Layers, hat, scarf and gloves recommended.
Suncream
Essential in summer. The cockpit offers no shade.
Sunglasses
Strongly recommended year-round. Sun glare is noticeably stronger in a glider cockpit.
Logbooks & Licences
Solo pilots (glider, PPL, or otherwise) - don't forget yours!
