So where is a good place near Los Angeles for a visiting pilot to go
soaring? I live in Arizona but work near LAX during the week. Was thinking about visiting a gliderport tomorrow (Sunday) while en route, and perhaps get a field check. Any suggestions? -tw (waiting for the newsletter to finish printing ...) wrote in message news:O4vJb.257448$J77.228830@fed1read07...

Ted:
Caracole Soaring at California City. We fly AS-K 21s, and should be very clear and post frontal, after two days of nice wave flying. We may have strong enough northeasterly breezes for a tertiary patch of wavelet off the El Paso Range, or enough instability (post frontal) for light thermals. If it stays northwest, we may still be light waving north of Mojave. Regardless, the cafe on the apron is open, and the conversation will be about soaring....we would make you welcome.

Too much good food, too much good wine, too much skiing, not enough flying,
battered and abused credit cards and back to work tomorrow. Nope, 'complaints' was exactly what I meant! :-) Ian |
