Foothill Flying Club Goes Sky Sailing

Sunday 25 October 2009. What fun we had. A light breeze moved the leaves of the trees that shaded our grassy picnic area. Perfect soaring weather. All the lift we wanted. We could stay up for as long as we wanted. 7 members went soaring. We had a drawing and Kent’s wife Julie won a ride in Sean Franke’s open class glider. It’s the F-15 of gliders. We all came back from our flights with big grins on our faces. It is very addicting. I really want to go again soon. We will take more people next time. It is a perfect way to spend the day.

Warner Springs Glider Port. Final approach to runway 8. Land uphill and due to rising terrain, you take off downhill on 26. Traffic goes in both directions so you have to pay attention.
