I'll be working in Zürich during January and February (maybe March too)
and
I am wondering if it is possible to get a few flights in a glider
somewhere?
Are there any clubs that fly more or less regularly during the winter, and
accept guest members?

With all those nice mountains, it should be possible to get good lift
somewhere...

Hallo Nick,

After ca. 1 hour of car draving from Zürich in direction south on the lake
of Luzern is the airport Buochs www.airportbuochs.ch , where the Gliding
Club Nidwalden www.sg-nidwalden.ch is flying in winter with their touring
motorglider Super Dimona. In addition to it, it could be possible (I have to
ask first) to fly with a private owner of a Nimbus 4DM in his super equipped
machine. He does a lot of flying in winter and is at the moment no. 1 in OLC
Europe.
