Default Registration open for SGP USA 2016 (July 24-31 2016)

Thanks to Andrew Georgeson of Australia for registering for Sailplane Grand Prix USA 2016 today.

We are now up to 25 registered pilots total (of 20 Max). We have 6 (of 5) International pilots registered. 19 (of 15) North American pilots registered. The SGP USA 2016 field is truly getting stronger with each passing day and the international interest has been enormous. Thanks to everyone for registering and thanks to all who are offering their support for the event. Please contact me if you are interested in helping out.

David Nadler has signed up to bring his new Arcus M for media and sponsor rides. Combined with Eric Mozer's new ASG-32, we have an excellent opportunity to demonstrate the state of the art in 2 place, self-launch sailplanes to the public!

We are still looking for 3 more rental 15m ships as well as a couple more potentially for some of our west coast "rock stars." Please contact me if you are willing to consider helping our guests.

2.5 weeks left to register for North American pilots.

Preference for North American pilots goes by SSA ranking, preference for international pilots goes by FAI ranking.
