PANOCHE CHECKOUT
Panoche is our
local starting area for cross country flights
to the south.
Dual flights are available with an instructor
to build your confidence in gliding to the
1st elevetor (EL1) and safely landing out
at Panoche air strip. After the checkout
with an instructor, you can tow from Hollister
to within gliding distance of
Panoche, you can fly "locally"
at Panoche, and then return to Hollister
by landing at Panoche, and getting
a tow back. MORE
