  1. Great site. I live in Ashtabula and didn’t know any sloping was going on in the area. Hope to get together with you this summer and get some sloping done. Also will come by on Sat. during the May event. :rotfl:

    Thanks,

    Rick

  2. Is there a formal club for the North Coast Soaring Association? If so, what are the dues?

    I would like to be included on an email list for the 2021 North Coast Glider Games. I love slope soaring, and miss not being able to fly at the Malvern slope.

    Thank you,

    Bob Ferrante – President of the Flying Aces of Aurora – Aurora Ohio

    • Hi Bob. Yes NCSA is a formal AMA sanctioned club. We are happy to have you aboard. Glider Games are April 29th through May 2nd this year. Check the site as I will be updating it over the next few weeks. Dues? Well we are due to fly as soon as the temps rise and the winds blow. ;-) Stay tuned.

      Jeff
