Lots of synergies here. I am a CI at 307 in Steinbach, MB. My eldest received his glider wings this summer and carried on to get his passenger rating in early September. You've all heard the story before...get your wings before your driver's license. I chaperoned our squadron to the Regional Gliding School at Gimli in late September and at the end of the day, my son was able to take me for a ride. Winched up to 1500 and what a fab experience to have your kid take you for a ride.
I am considering getting a rc program together and would appreciate hearing about the various highs and lows that others have experienced.
thanks for letting me share. I videoed the flight and I still tingle when I watch it.
