     The "SENIORS NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS"

In March, for the last 20 years, Senior soaring pilots from all over the country congregate in Florida.  For a week, icons in the sport challange each other in daily competition determining who can fly a set course the fastest.  Flights typically last around 3-hours and may cover 200 or more miles.  Sparing contestants push the envelope to fly tenths of a mile faster for a win; but once on the ground camaraderie prevails at evening socials.
