Oxford University Gliding Club operates under several layers of oversight, each designed to minimise risk in the sport.

All operations occur according to British Gliding Association guidelines. Our aircraft are maintained to BGA standard, with daily inspections before every flight and a full annual carried out by our licensed inspection team. We are also fully insured by Crispin Speers Aviation Insurance.

Home flying operations are based at RAF Weston-on-the-Green with Oxford Gliding Club (our host club), and as such are carried out under their rules, regulations and oversight system. More details can be found on their website, https://www.oxfordgliding.com/

Our 2024-25 Risk Assessment and Club Safety Policy can be found here and here respectively.
