Airways Flight Park
 Airways
Flight Park is sited on an old airfield near Ashbourne, Derbyshire.
It provides an ideal location for towing hang gliders and
paragliders, with the surrounding countryside providing good
opportunities for cross country flying.
The Flight Park is also ideal for flying paramotors and powered
hang gliders, and is large enough to comfortably accommodate
all methods of getting into the air at the same time! The
long fields and configuration of the Flight Park means that
regardless of the wind direction, you should be able to fly,
thus increasing your chances of getting into the air. 
How To Find Airways Flight Park
From Ashbourne:
Airways Flight Park is located just off the A515, about 3
miles south of Ashbourne. Look out on the left for the Darley
Moor Race Track. The turning for the Flight Park is half a
mile further on, on the left, signposted to “Yeavely”.
The Flight Park operating areas are on both sides of this
road, within 100 metres of the A515, so keep your eyes open
for the winch. Drive through the gate and follow the track
to where the other cars are parked.

Turn Up and Fly
We have a range of hang gliders, powered hang gliders and
paramotors for hire per flight or by the day. This is handy
if you just want to drop in and fly and is ideal for testing
out gliders if you are thinking of buying a new wing. If you
want to try out a specific glider or motor, it is best to
give us a ring a couple of days beforehand so we can ensure
we have what you want.
Cross Country Retrieve Service
Our retrieve service takes the worry out of going cross country
especially if you are just embarking on your first cross country
flights. The cost for this service is based on how far you
fly!
