Visiting U.S. of A. by
Jim Culp
Dear Bill,
You may want to schedule your flight to USA into Orlando,
Florida. That would accomodate your aims and ambitions.
Go for it.
From there, flying into or out of Orlando International
Airport, go to the fine gliderport
Seminole-Lake Gliderport at Clermont Florida.
