Default Glider ground school syllabus


I recomend the new flight training and knowledge books by Russel
Holtz. These are the best training manuals I've seen.

You can use the knowledge book by itself for ground training. Samples
of the book are available online see http://www.gliderbooks.com. Also
available from Cumulus Soaring and maybe other places.

Cheers

I'm teaching a glider ground school for the first time this winter.
Question is does anyone have a syllabus? Or recommendations for a
source from which to create a syllabus. I understand that the 'glider
flying handbook' (FAA-H-8083-13) is the official authority, perhaps not
the best one. What other books should I consider for a primary text.
Thanks,
