Hi,
Does anyone know where I can fly Duo Discus in New England. Is there a soaring club that provides scenic rides or so in a Duo Discus.
Thanx

They've got one at Bermuda High Soaring.....it's in S. Carolina. Kinda near
the East coast.

The only outfits that provide rides in their duos in the NE US are
Ridge Soaring, Philadelphia Glider Council, and Adirondack Soaring.
Harris Hill has one that they use only for cross country training
within the club. The one registered in Massachusetts belongs to
a private syndicate.

Check on the SSA web page for how to contact various glider operations
in the US.
