Lincoln
Area Soaring Society
"LASS"
Lincoln
Area Soaring Society is a small group of guys meeting
monthly to plan, share stories and the latest building
project.
Our 10 to 15 members enjoy a flying field at
Lancaster Event Center on the northeast edge of Lincoln. It
is very large and accessible. Perfect for thermal
duration sailplanes but some of us fly electric there as
well.
The field is members only but we love to have
guests fly with us. Annually we host a handful of relaxed
contests and fun flys. Many LASS member enjoy flying slope
gliders at the dams in the area and at Wilson Lake, Kansas
where we hosted a regional pylon style race for eleven
years.
The Midwest Slope Challenge is still the
longest running slope race in the country. Jim Baker will be
glad to answer any questions about LASS if you give him a
call at 402-540-1127.
