check out the club website for Canadian Rockies Soaring Club at
http://www.canadianrockiessoaring.com We fly out of Invermere B.C.
which is approx 3 hours driving time west of Calgary AB.

Bring lots of film ....the views while flying over the Canadian Rockies
can be breathtaking.

Thank you! This looks exactly what I was looking for. I'm not really
planning on doing really extensive flying, but it would certainly rock if I
were able to make a flight above the Rockies (with an experienced pilot or
instructor, I don't have mountain experience myself). After all, if you're
visiting an area as spectacular as that, what glider pilot wouldn't want to
take a look at that from the air? I would! I'll bring my logbook :-)

Thanks again,

André
