Joy Of Soaring

The members of the Williams Soaring Center (WSC) staff invite you to join us in our appreciation of pure flight. We support and teach the principles of the Soaring Society of America (SSA), which is dedicated to the art and science of motor-less flight both for pleasure and competition, emphasizing a maximum degree of safety through professional training. We encourage participation in the SSA badge program, local, regional and national competitions, and record soaring. Link to a short video

Soaring Conditions

We are located near the Southern edge of the Mendocino Mountains, well known for fantastic summer and fall cross country flying. Also, the airport's valley situation creates favorable conditions for spring and early summer adventures.

Mountain Wave is also encountered when the "westerlies" blow, usually post-frontal in winter and early spring. And finally the famous Maxwell shear is a phenomenon in the summer. This intrusion of marine air into the heated Sacramento Valley air mass is known for creating great soaring conditions and you'll find it right on our doorstep.

We are located at: (see location page for maps and directions)
