Member Achievements |
|
SPASM exists to support the enjoyment and growth of sailplane flying. Many of our members are working towards goals for a flight achievement program, towards personal goals, and competing in area contests. Whatever your interest in sailplanes and electric soaring, you’ll find a member who is willing to help you achieve your goals.
Club Records SPASM keeps an internal set of club records to document the progress of our members. To be eligible for these records, you must send an email with your record, and the name of a witness (must also be a SPASM member) to the club treasurer (treasurer@flyspasm.com). To have a new record type established, it must be proposed and voted on by the members at a club meeting.
Flight Achievement Programs Flight achievement programs like the LES and the LSF are great ways to improve your flying skills. In working your way through these programs, you are forced to gain proficiency in all aspects of soaring flight.
SPASM currently has no League of Silent Flight Members.
