Default Best Book for New Teen Glider Students

Aviation is conducted in a new, three dimensional environment. The textbook must describe, in easy to understand language, the reason an aircraft has each of the three primary flight controls, how an aircraft flies, and how a person uses each control to maneuver in a safe manner.

There is much, much more, however, it all begins here.

Thanks for your response. You have trained hundreds of glider pilots of all ages and have developed a curriculum and methods for each age group. We want to adopt and utilize the best resources now available. Our club core group has 30 to 40 years soaring experience, but we are not aware of all the materials and resources currently in use. Would you be available for a phone conference at your convenience?

Regards,
