Have you ever watched an eagle as it soared effortlessly above you and dreamed of gliding through the air with such ease and grace, rising with the air currents? You can, you know. Soaring in modern sailplanes gives you the opportunity to fly like the eagles. Today's sailplanes can fly for hours and cover great distances. Come join us and begin living your dream of flying like an eagle.
The Greater Houston Soaring Association is
made up of members from the Houston area organized for the purpose of educating
the public and its members about the sport of soaring. GHSA is a non-profit corporation
