GS Aviation is a UK based microlight flight training organisation operating throughout the year at Clench Common in Wiltshire and with a training centre in France, currently operating during the summer.

Located near Marlborough, just south of Swindon (M4 junction 15) and easy travel from Reading, Bristol, Newbury, Hungerford, Oxford, Salisbury and Bath. Only 90 minutes from London. High on the Wiltshire Downs, north of the Vale of Pewsey and the Kennet & Avon Canal, the airfield offers the best of the southern English countryside. It is an ideal location to learn to fly. We are based at Clench Common Airfield, about 3 miles south of Marlborough on the A345 towards Pewsey. At Clench Common take the left turn to Wootton Rivers and then look for the GSA sign off to the left after about a mile.

Close to Avebury, Kennet Long Barrow, Stonehenge, and surrounded by the seasonal "crop circle" phenomena, we can provide all levels of flying lessons in one of the most exciting fleets of aircraft, both 3-axis and flexwing aircraft anywhere in the UK. We also provide ground school, gift vouchers, as well as service and maintenance, hangarage, new and second hand aircraft and equipment sales.

You'll be in safe and experienced hands when you come for a flying lesson with us. GS Aviation instructors and examiners share a wealth of experience, Graham being a former British Champion, and between them they have amassed thousands of hours in both flight training and competition. But at the same time they fly because it is fun, and they want you to share the enjoyment that flying can bring.

Aircraft Sales and Shares
We are a main dealer for P & M Aviation (Pegasus and Mainair) and have onsite examples of the 100hp GT450 and the Quantum. The GT450 and the Quantum are available for trial flights. A QuickR can be made available subject to satisfactory notice. Trainee and suitably qualified pilots can also purchase shares in our fleet allowing them to experience the joys of aircraft ownership at a fraction of the cost. We also have several Tecnam factory built, all metal, aircraft available for sale. These include a very low hours, virtually new, high wing and a low wing. All Rotax powered so very economical running on unleaded MOGAS.

Advanced Training
Need a brush up, differences training or want to go further afield. We are pioneering a "Spread Your Wings" programme for already qualified pilots. This can include longer cross countries and even cross channel flights. We have also recently started a Safety Pilots Course for spouses and passengers of light aircraft.
