Does anyone know if there is a Soaring Club near Naples FL? Thanks, Not sure about the Naples area, but there is the "Miami Glider Club" that flies off a grass strip off of Krome Avenue just north of Homestead. There is also a commercial operation where you could buy a tow that flies out of Homestead General. I drive up from Key West to do my flying, so I expect your drive would be no worse than mine. Respectfully, |

Someone bought an L-13 from one of our club members. I believe it was
heading to the Naples area for a start up commercial operation. I also heard through the grapevine that it was destroyed by hurricane charley. This is not confirmed.

There is a glider at Immokalee airport. A lot of open fields around the
airport. Last time I checked rates were average. John Naples, FL "Mike Schumann" wrote in message ... Does anyone know if there is a Soaring Club near Naples FL? Thanks, -- Mike Schumann |

Does anyone know if there is a Soaring Club near Naples FL? Thanks, -- Mike Schumann I live in N. Fort Myers, the Immokalee airport has an L-13 and a 182 towplane, have not met or flown with anyone out there yet. I have been flying my Discus with my buddy and his asw-24 out of Lenox flying school, Gardner Fla., just north of Arcadia, however Hurricane Charlie destroyed the towplane, a 2-22 and a I-26. Pat and Harriett, even though their homes received substantial damage have vowed to locate another towplane and return to flight status. I own a citabria with a towhook and can use it when the weather i.e. hurricanes- fade away and we can once again think about recreational flying. Come join us. |
