Garret Willat’s Junior Soaring Team
Stemme for a day program
Fly with two time U.S. soaring team pilot
Garret Willat in a high performance motor glider Stemme S10vt for the day in
beautiful Warner Springs California. While the experience is tailored to your
personal needs this is your chance to experience cross country and practice
competition techniques from a highly ranked 4000 hour certified flight
instructor and team pilot. Lodging in a memorable Resort or highly rated Bed
& Breakfast is included. Proceeds go to help fund the Junior Soaring Team in
World Gliding Championships.
A great way to prepare for the summer
. A re-fresher from not flying most
of the winter, to sharpen your skills and improve your Cross Country soaring
skills. An enjoyable day and evening for your spouse at a memorable resort or
Bed and Breakfast. All this while making a donation to the US Junior Soaring
team to help Garret Willat and Mike Westbrook compete in the Junior World
Soaring Championships this summer in the United Kingdom.
Garret will be giving a 1day camp
style flying experience. With the
use of George Klopfer’s Stemme S10vt we will work on the skills of your
choice. We can fly a first cross country, we could emphasize on specific skills,
fly a badge style flight or set a racing task and learn start cylinders and turn
point tricks. This could be counted for a flight review. This flying combined
with the rest of day discussing topics covering glider preparation, mental
preparation, tactics, and different flying skills. Then include a 1 night stay
at the Warner Spring Ranch or Orchard Hill Country Inn.
Garret is a 3 time member of the US
Soaring team, twice as pilot. He is
a full-time flight instructor and towpilot for Sky Sailing with over 4000 hours

standard class at the last region 9 contest, flew to a second place at the
