The Miami Gliderport in south Florida has closed after 40+ years. The
owners of the land - not owned by the club - have other plans for the
property. However, the Miami Glider Club remains active and most
members will go to the Homestead Airport and likely buy tows and rent
gliders from the commercial operator.

We used to watch them with a bit of awe as we made the west turn
towards Mary's gliderport for my daughter's flight lessons...so many years
ago. I hope they do well in the future. Land is an expensive thing.
