About
Join us and become a glider pilot! We are currently looking for equity members in our club. We utilize two gliders, the SGS 2-33 (2-place) and the 1-26 (1-place). Becoming an equity member buys you a share in both gliders. We also have two instructors on staff who teach for FREE! You can start off with no experience and in one season be a licensed glider pilot. For more details please see one of our members at the airport.
