We are having 2 GPGS seminars that were arranged at the SSA convention and won't have time to be published in SOARING. Could you help us spread the word to anyone interested in your region? Clubs, etc. We would appreciate your help reestablishing GPGS back to the splendor that Dad established for so many years.

The course covers Federal Air Regulations - Aerodynamics and Glider Operations - Airman's Information Manual-Airport Directory - Instruments and Systems - Weather-Weather Services - Weight and Balance - Performance - Cross Country Flight Planning - Sectional Chart and Navigation -Radio Navigation - Aeromedical Factors- Decision making - Practice questions and correct responses- and much more.

The three separate books are available from GPGS at 1-877-FLY-GPGS, online at gliderpilotsgroundschool.com as well as from many FBO’s and clubs, including Wings and Wheels.
