Hello to you all! Old man just getting started in sailing. Moving to Las
vegas, so I'm going to hold off on club for now, but my question is what to
learn 1st. FAA Test to get my solo, along with atmospheric condition
information. Going to Club here in Cincinnati and offer a fee hand to help
them out however I can and hope to learn something. Thanks for any imput!

Just go fly with an instructor. Join a club and become active in it. This is fun so go do it.

....And when you arrive in Las Vegas, head on down south on I-15 to Jean and
look up the Las Vegas Valley Soaring association. http://lvvsa.org. They're
a fun-loving group!

There are no old men in soaring. From what I've seen, it is a fountain of youth, and if you're under 60, they call you a kid.

Steve,

If you are going to a club near Cincinnati, it's probably ours (Caesar Creek Soaring Club, Waynesville, OH). Drop me an email at 'paynterf{AT}gmail<dot>com
