About Angus Gliding Club

The Angus Gliding Club is a small and friendly club with at present 25 members. Visitors are always welcome. 

The airfield is situated at Drumshade Farm between Glamis and Kirriemuir in the Strathmore valley. Click here for details on how to get there.

The Abertay University Gliding Club in Dundee is affiliated with us and many students from there have started to learn gliding here.

We fly every weekend weather permitting. The main flying day is Sunday, but we often get out Saturday's as well. If you come from a distance, call one of the numbers on the home page to make sure weather conditions are fine. 

The club has a well-balanced fleet to cater for everyone's needs. A K7, Bocian, SF34 and K6cr.

Launches are by winch in either east or west direction, which are the predominant wind-directions here. We have good thermal conditions from Spring right through autumn and regularly get wave of the Scottish hills as well.
