It should be noted that the article was written by the SSA's Publicity
Chairperson, Val Paget. Great Job, Val!!!

Also a nice quote from USAF Captain Danny Sorenson who learned his
glider flying at the Soaring Club of Houston. Ken and Michelle
Sorenson are Danny's proud parents.

Folks, it looks if we may have a small groundswell of interest
developing. Much of this interest will be channeled through the SSA
"where to fly" page.

Please go to the SSA "where to fly" page and look at your
organizations contact information and make sure it is correct.t.

This article (by Jay Hopkins) is the BEST, most comprehensive summary
of our sport, "aimed at the general flying public", that I have ever
seen! VERY WELL DONE!

FYI, the AOPA article by Val Paget - When Every Second Counts - was
viewed 17,448 times by 16,490 individuals. Average time spent on the
article was 05m05s. A link was provided at the end of the article to
the SSA. It wasn't smart tagged, so there are no counts for click
through to the SSA. Perhaps the SSA webmaster would like to share...

Please note also that Let's Go Flying (letsgofling.com) has a flight
school search tool. This function is used daily by about 350 potential
pilots. Soaring schools are included. Updating this information is
probably as critical as updating the information at SSA.
