Hello again VSA members,
I hope you all have been enjoying the Winter Webinar Series so far. I personally have had fun seeing everyone and have been impressed with the turn out so far. We are not quite half way through the Winter Series just yet and with spring in sight I hope everyone is as anxious as I am to gather as much knowledge as I can before kicking off my 2021 Soaring season.
There has been a slight change to the Program; we will still be fortunate to hear from Alex Neigher and his great adventures in the paraglider world and how it brought him into our soaring community however instead of this Saturday February 20th we will be postponing one week and Alex will be presenting on February 27th at 4:30 PM. He is going to share with us his adventure through his soaring career. Alex Is an accomplished paraglider pilot who 3 years ago made the jump to sailplanes. After receiving Primary flight instruction from Ben Mayes at Williams soaring center and earning his Private Pilot License Alex purchased an ASW-20 and has spent 2 seasons between Williams and Truckee. I am super exited to hear about his journey and I hope all you are as well
Here is the schedule for the remainder of the 2021 Winter Webinar Series (4:30-6 PM):
