April 21st Saturday– Caesar Creek Soaring Club Glider Event – Caesar Creek Soaring Club (CCSC) is one of the oldest and largest soaring clubs in the United States. Ohio FCA has the honor to participate in an Introductory flight for to 3000’ AGL (above ground level) for $100 or the “Mile High” tow for $150 with an experienced CCSC pilot. It’s an exhilarating experience like no other. Ohio FCA only has 12 spots. Lunch will be provided. This event is weather dependent with a backup date is June 16. All are welcome to attend and watch the process even if you don’t have an interest in flying. It’s as much fun to watch the process of taking off and landing the gliders as it is to soar in one. If the April 21st data does not cancel due to weather, the Caesar Creek Soaring Club has offered to give us the back up of June 16th for a second OH FCA event, thus allowing everyone the opportunity to participate in this amazing experience.
