Led by Brad Pattison, this sessiom will discuss FAA pilot requirements for glider licenses, talk about modern gliders, and why soaring can improve your enjoyment and skills as a pilot of all aircraft types. For pilots entering aviation as a career, he will discuss why gliding may be an economical and better path into Commercial Aviation. Also included will be a typical scenario for a glider launch, flight, and landing. The session will cover some basic training maneuvers and common cross-country flights around the Northwest and how glider pilots use the four basic forms of natural lift to stay aloft and fly amazingly long cross-country flights. The aim of this seminar is to acquaint you with the joy of soaring and help you decide if it might be something you should pursue and then how to get started. This seminar is part of the glider exhibition booth for Puget Sound Soaring Association which is based at Bergseth Field (WN76) in Enumclaw, WA.
