Summary: The presentation will focus on how the British Gliding Association have turned a small group of enthusiastic Junior pilots into a thriving brand that has flying associations from around the world seeking to copy the model. It will include an introduction to sport gliding, the UK Junior Gliding brand and how it is encouraging participation in aviation (both sport and commercial) and will conclude with what we believe the future holds. The presentation will hope to provide guidance for other air sports in how to not only attract young pilots but to retain them thus creating a legacy to ensure General Aviation thrives in the future.
