Minden Wave Camp Lives Again

Many thanks for the kind words, Andy. Living and flying in Minden's
fantastic soaring conditions it's hard not to think this place
deserves fine equipment and first-rate instructors. And the fact of
the matter is, soaring pilots are a fun bunch to be around with a lot
of knowledge to share. SoaringNV is happy to offer a place for them
to gather, share stories, and contemplate how we can all take
advantage of the super soaring available to us here.

We were particularly pleased to have champion glider pilot Mike
Bradford, now chairman of the Airport Advisory Committee, welcome camp
participants yesterday. He was uncategorical in his support for
soaring at Minden, sharing stories of his own record attempts here and
telling us that the new airport administration has a friendly vision
for an expanded future of our sport at this airport in cooperation
with other aviation activities. We've noticed a dramatic change in
attitude at our airport and encourage pilots who have not been here in
a while to come give it a try.

Tonight's the hangar barbecue. Any soaring pilots in the area, feel
to drop in and have an adult beverage and some barbecued chicken.
