Good Commercial School?
I'm new to soaring and want to take an intensive 5-7 day course that, I hope,
will include solo. I'm looking for a school that could put me up for the week or has lodgings close by. I'm also looking for a school with a high leval of instruction and safety. I live in WA. State so I would prefer a school on this side of the Mississippi if possible. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Marc M. |

Also check www.northwestsoaring.com in Cle Elum for something much closer to you. -- !Replace DECIMAL.POINT in my e-mail address with just a . to reply directly Eric Greenwell Richland, WA (USA) |

Marc:
We would certainly invite you to fly with us. Our web page answers many questions about rates, equipment, schedule, and local accommodations only 12 miles off. We are past summer's heat, but still enjoy nice soaring conditions into fall. Winter brings another style of soaring, in wave. We fly and teach year-round. If I can answer more specific questions, please mail us directly. Cindy Brickner www.caracolesoaring.com "Marc McCoy" wrote in message om...

Mile High Gliding in Boulder, CO, offers a "5-day" course, training in the forgiving and accessible 2-33, additionally offering the great secenery and soaring conditions of the Continental Divide. They recommend a B&B just around the corner but there are many more close-by hotels in the University town. See links to "instruction" and "directions" (scroll to "accomodations"). www.milehighgliding.com (877)527-1122 |
