Winding Down The 2005 Season

CISS members made 2005 an extraordinary year for badges, checkrides, and state records (in two states). Now October and the regular flying season are almost over. Soon it will be time to do the annual preventive maintenance on the gliders. Crews of eager CISS members usually meet at the hangar on Saturday mornings in the fall, winter and early spring, fixing every little thing that needs it.
If the weather is nice, we often drag a glider or two out into the sunshine for a few flights. It pays to stay current through the winter because before you know it, the great soaring conditions of April and May will be back, and you'll want to be ready.
