Default Flying @ East Coast for a weekend

All,



Currently I am in the USA for work for a couple of weeks. A year ago I started to take glider lessons in the Netherlands. During the weekend I would like to have some lessons at the east coast.



Are you aware of any gliding clubs that offer lessons during the weekend for outsiders?



Thank you!

Not sure where on the "east coast" you will be. But, if you are close to NYC give Yards Creek Soaring (YCS) a call (. They are a commercial operation that offers glider lessons without requiring being part of a club (even though there is a very active club on site as well called ACA). Weather permitting, YCS usually operates 7 days a week (which is very exceptional for any operation in the area). Spring and fall are usally best weather for soaring and lately we have had farly poor conditions but that can change withing days! You can check out several of the flights he http://www.onlinecontest.org/olc-2.0...C0&sc=&sp=2013
