Join over 100 members of all ages and experience the thrill of soaring flight.
Nothing can match the the grace and tranquility of silently and
effortlessly slipping through the air.
Through the ages man has been inspired by the
effortless beauty and grace of soaring birds climbing high into the sky
with outstretched wings. Now through the miracle of modern
technology and engineering we can join these beautiful creatures of the sky.
Made with glass and carbon fiber, modern sailplanes
can now match and even exceed the capabilities of soaring birds.
Frequently we find ourselves flying with them in formation, willing
partners sharing the currents of rising air.
Flying from Stanton airfield, a beautiful and friendly airport dedicated to sport
aviation, Minnesota Soaring Club pilots frequently fly gliders hundreds of miles and climb thousands of feet above the ground
in thermals triggered by the rich fields of Minnesota.
Members have access to a fleet of
three modern sailplanes
and a tow plane. Five FAA qualified
club instructors are ready to satisfy any training need.
There is no charge for flight instruction.
Members relax, socialize and hold meetings in the
MSC clubhouse. The clubhouse is equipped with computer, internet access, personal lockers, refreshments
and barbecue grills.
Interested? Download the
MSC brochure , send an
e-mail for more information or come
and socialize with us on any week-end of the flying season.
