View Full Version : Gliding instruction in the Bay Area (CA)
September 25th 06, 11:04 PM
I recently got my PP-ASEL but I wanted to check out the possibility of
getting some glider time. Any suggestions for getting some glider time
in the Bay Area in Northern CA? Any helpful info appreciated,
thanks

Thanks for the info.. hmm, its 96 miles to Hollister and 100 to
Williams from the East Bay.. Isn't there any other in the area? I had
heard of Byron but could not locate it yet
thanks anyway, appreciate it,

You must be way east to be 96 miles from Hollister. If so, Byron might
be indeed the closest option. They operate mostly on weekends.
