Default Request for Presentations to Introduce Soaring to Others

Good evening, Bruno. For the past several years I have had the privilege of being invited to local schools to do presentations on Soaring. Thanks to the help of the nice folks at SSA I was provided with an excellent DVD entitled "Out and Return". This DVD runs about 21 minutes and shows a nice flight with Bill Liscomb out of Warner Springs, California. It provides highlights of glider assembly, takeoff, a cross-country flight and some really cool landing shots as well. I've also passed out copies of the SSA booklet entitled "Soaring in America". A nice keepsake that everyone can take home with them.

If you dread having to talk AND be entertaining for a whole hour, the DVD is well done, entertaining and is certainly more interesting than me talking.. The Teachers at the schools have been really interested too so I know that it works adults as well.

Good luck and have fun with it!
