Some calculation examples below::
Gliding is an aerial sport that is affordable to everyone. Given the participation of all members in the operation of the aerodrome and the activities related to gliding, the flight prices remain relatively modest. Because the instructors are volunteers, you are only charged for the flight costs and the annual fee.

The theoretical instruction accompanies the practical training.
It is done in parallel with the first instruction flights on the initiative of the student based on the french nanual ‘Manuel du Pilote de Vol à Voile’ édited by the frensh Ministry of transport and the Private pilots manual "Manuel du Pilote Privé (partie réglementation et espaces aériens)
Pursuant english documentation and manuals can be recommended by the CLVV on request
Instructors are available for support or any other questions. After about two years and 40 hours of flight experience, the student pilot will take the theoretical test.
Before the theoretical exams, the club organizes (on request of the students, courses concerning the regulation, the radiotelephony etc).
After passing the theoretical (and practical) exam, normally 2 years after the start of the training, the candidate will hold the glider pilot license and will be able to fly on own responabiity and acquire further ratings, such as motorglider qualification and flying (nnon commercial) with passengers.
Liste des Centres Aéromédicaux (AeMC) COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 1178/2011AMC1 FCL.110.S; FCL.210.S - Annex to ED Decision 2011/016/R:
While it is true that summer is the best time for gliding, the actual training can be done at any time of the year as long as the weather permits. Via the Internet, the student pilot is informed about the training days.
Instruction is done on a double-seater glider ASK 21 type until the first solo. An average of 60 to 80 flights (most aerodorme circuit flights) is required until the the student pilot is released for his first solo flight. Then the training continues on single-seater, but always under the supervision of the monitor.
Then follow the practical exam which is the completion of the glider pilot instruction, two or three years after your first flight with instructor.
