Syd's Solo in a Glider!

Air Sailing had its first solo of the year on Saturday the 19th of September. This is Syd Whisler, 16 who just got her driver's license and then flew 2 solos. She is sponsored by a scholarship from the Reno High Sierra 99s.  Syd trained in the Soar the West’s ASK-21 and soloed in Nevada Soaring’s SGS 1-26.  Neita Montague was her primary instructor and Syd was Neita's first primary solo. This is an exciting beginning for Soar the West in this Covid year. - Neita M.
