Students
IMPORTANT
Stephen Layton (our flight instructor) will NOT be available for most of the spring & summer of 2023 due to taking a crop spraying job in the midwest. There is NO INSTRUCTION AVAILABLE at this time, so we will NOT be taking on new students.
BECOMING A STUDENT
Join the SSA as a full member (required by club insurance)
Apply for a Student Pilot Certificate (required before flying solo, and may take 4 weeks to receive)
Contact a club officer or attend a club meeting. See the costs here.
STUDENT RESOURCES
Below are the resources recommended for the glider student to purchase.
