Glider Club
Flying is magic. Our goal is to help people new to aviation achieve their dreams by flying gliders.
Learning to fly a glider is the closest you can get to soaring through the sky like a bird. Come learn to fly gliders and experience all the fun the hobby and sport of soaring offers.
We focus on education (for you), personal achievement (yours!) and safety.
We won't be dishonest, do gimmicks or be shallow.
Special thanks to Jartha, for all you have done for us.

If you want a soaring “podcast” to listen to while you do other stuff, there’s the FAA Glider Flying Handbook. Phillip Murphy’s channel uses an AI text-to-speech voice to read the FAA manuals. You don’t get everything from the images and charts, but it’s still good glider listening when you’re on the go!
