This five-day camp is for beginner and intermediate-level glider pilots who want to develop efficient thermal soaring skills for longer local flights and for safe cross-country flights.


The objective of the Thermaling Camp is to develop and sharpen thermaling and soaring abilities through comprehensive lectures, practical demonstrations, and daily practice of the basic concepts and skills of recreational thermal soaring.


Thermaling Camp is five days of soaring talk and practice. Daily lectures, demonstrations, and flights start at 8:30 AM and continue through at least 5 PM. The week is topped off with a banquet and celebration of accomplishments on Friday evening.


Participants must have a Private Pilot Glider certificate or a Student Pilot certificate with 5 hours solo experience.
