Manuals and Other Information

This page has lots of good information including Manuals for our planes and equipment as well as a bunch of other useful stuff.

 

The Boehmer Soaring Library

Thanks to a generous gift from Dave A. Boehmer and Bill Boehmer we now have quite an extensive club library that is available to all members. Rental is by the honor system, please sign books in and out so we can keep track of them. Thanks to Mark Wilson for compiling the list of books and organizing the library.
