Such a map is currently under development within the SSA.

Depending on how soon you want to fly gliders (or perhaps soar) around
Chicago, you may have to wait for the spring thaw.

Hi,

The British Gliding Association has a list of their clubs displayed on
a map (at http://www.gliding.co.uk/findaclub/ukmap.htm).

Does anyone know of similar maps for other countries ?

It took me a long time to find gliding clubs in Poland and then it was
difficult to determine how far they where from my hotel (excellent
list of world clubs at

http://www.esgc.co.uk/home.asp?start...country=poland
but no map). I ended up having to ask a local which was the nearest
club.

I want to fly in Chicago shortly and the Soaring Society of America
list 8 clubs in IL. I will have to determine the address of each club
and find them on a map related to where I am staying. This takes time
and I am sure that many people would have done this before.

I dont mind doing this once if the data that I find helps other
people, and therefore I can use data that other people have found.

If anyone knows of such maps, I would be very greatful.

Thanks in advance,
Rob Sharpe (England)
