The LSC membership group is composed of people with a variety of backgrounds including students, engineers, doctors, lawyers, teachers, professional pilots, retirees, and others who all share a common interest in soaring.  Members reside in Kentucky and Southern Indiana.  In addition to supportive teamwork, members contribute individual expertise which significantly adds to the group as a whole.

Flying experience ranges from a few hours to thousands, providing a wealth of knowledge and expertise from which to draw.

LSC Membership
The following outlines the costs for joining and participating as a LSC club member.  If soaring flight is an activity in which you have an interest, or if it is an item on your bucket list, something that you always planned to do someday, this is the way to get started.

For additional information, contact a club member, visit the LSC Facebook Page, or visit with us on a flying weekend and experience soaring flight first hand.  Bring your significant other along as well.  Even if they are not into flying, they will enjoy exploring Bardstown while you are doing your thing.
