Portsmouth Naval Gliding Club has been based at Daedalus Airfield at Lee 0n the Solent for almost 70 years but it’s continued use is now under threat because of the actions of Fareham Borough Council as they try to commercialise the airfield. The club is open to civilians as well as naval personnel.
In the past PAM has had quite close ties to PNGC and on a couple of occasions members have visited the airfield for a tour of the facilities and pleasure flights. They have a good website with loads of information, to see it CLICK HERE
There is a petition to keep the Club at the airfield and you can find it HERE Please sign it you’d like to see gliding continue at Daedalus.

I would like the PNGC to continue using HMS Daealus airfield for their gliding activities.Having being stationed there for some 6 to 7 years and have had many flights and old friends using this airfield they should continue to do so.Fareham council should start to consider other people and their activities instead of filling their own pockets.
After all we pay their extortionate wages and freebies.
