Each year, members help staff the glider section of the Illinois CAP Flight Encampment, and cosponsor the Gary Flight Academy , a flight training program for high school students from Gary, Indiana. We have about 40 members, including seven who are FAA certified glider instructors. All instruction is free, and the charge for tows and glider rental is comparable to the most reasonable commercial operations. Membership dues are nominal. CAP has a Schweizer 2-33 based with us that is available to their members at incredibly low cost.
Visitors are welcome, and tows are available to non-members.
