Default Cross country question? How is it done today?

Join the 1-26 Association if you have not. Incredible support and encouragement for $15 per year, and you can find anything you need to know about the 1-26 from people on the email list.


I would encourage you to at least get your Silver badge in the 1-26.


Hi Kevin, I have been a member of the 1-26 association for about 3 years now. I purchased the 1-26E specifically with the intent of doing cross country (and my silver) in it, so no encouragement necessary

Hi Kevin,

You might consider going to a Cross Country Camp. In a week you have
lectures in the morning from experienced cross country pilots and flying
during the afternoon, sometimes dual. Air Sailing has a good one as do
other glider-ports.

Tom,

If you can, come to the Champs next June at Caesar Creek Club in Ohio. They will be in June, and you will learn more in a week and a half there than you can learn in 2 years on your own.

It is a friendly site, and there will be people that will be glad to help and mentor you.

Kevin
