I have the opportunity to present in March to a group of non-glider

pilots the joys of soaring. Have you done such a thing? If so, can I

leverage parts of your presentation? Please contact me. Thanks.



We are working on an outline of what needs to be covered in the 90-120

minute presentation. Some thoughts (not necessarily in order);



Overview

Add-on rating

Training

The club atmosphere

Badges and contests

Medical

CLGC & SSA organizations

Ship types (powered and not)

Instruments (mechanical, vario, etc)

Avionics (trending towards "glass" cockpits)

Resources

Conclusion

As always, consider your audience. Who are they? That would shape my response WRT your list.
