The present club was founded in 1991, though gliding had been a regular activity at the airfield since 1984. The club operates every day of the week and currently has three K13, a K21, three K8, an Astir, a motor glider, two lpg powered winches and a super cub tug. There are numerous privately owned gliders.
The club hosts trial lessons for visitors and runs courses with professional instructors from March to October.
