Sport 3 and Gecko Pilots


The Sport Class is getting very popular. Pilots love flying the
king posted gliders with their easy handling and landing characteristics. Many
pilots are turning to these gliders to make flying more fun.

If you are a Gecko or Sport 3 pilot (or you fly any other king posted glider)
you might think about flying in Sport Class Competitions. There are plenty of
them, not just here in the US, but world wide. Sport Class competition builds
camaraderie and all the pilots appear to love doing it.

Check out the Green Swamp Sport Klassic:
