Top 20 XC Soaring Sites in the US
Looking for cross-country soaring sites to visit on vacation? Places to retire with top-notch soaring?
I’ve done an analysis based on three years of US OLC (Online Contest) flight data covering 270+ sites, more than 40,000 flights, and in excess of 5 million miles flown. YMMV. Map is at https://drive.google.com/open?id=1F_...PQ&usp=sharing For more details about the analysis, see the Soaring Club of Houston web page: https://sites.google.com/site/soarin...-soaring-sites To our European and international pilots (hint, hint) - would be great if someone would create a similar map for Europe, or global. Great publicity for your club or location - within a day of posting this to US SSA’s Facebook page (reposted to many club’s pages), the Google map had over 2000 views. Frank Allen, SCOH
