Want to give as a gift. Where can one go for a scenic sailplane ride in
Washington?

There are lots of gliders in Arlington. That's the only place I know of on the west side anyway. There used to be a lot of activity in Issaquah, but that was many years ago before they sold the land for commercial development and built a Costco and multiplex theater on top of it.
