Making it more affordable

Even though gliding is the least expensive way to fly in an aircraft on a regular basis, it still can represent an affordability challenge for many prospective pilots in a challenging economy.

That’s why the club has built-in a number of money-saving rates to make flying at GGC more accessible to our community. Here are some ways the club helps pilots afford flying. 

Bursaries – women pilots

Celebrating diversity and inclusion is important at the Gatineau Gliding Club. Over our history, some of our member pilots including youth female pilots have gone on to careers in commercial aviation. 

For women looking for financial support to advance their pilot development,  bursaries are available from the Woman’s Soaring Pilots Association.
