Sanford Soaring

Sanford Soaring SanfordSoaring is a non-profit glider club located at the Sanford Regional Airport (KSFM) in Sanford, (Just a little more than an hour north of Boston).

Permanently closed.

Have you ever wanted to soar above southern Maine, playing with the hawks and eagles, with nothing but the sound of the wind whistling past your ears? Sanford Soaring is a non-profit club, operated by its members purely for the joy of soaring. We are offering a few different membership options, with special ultra-low rates for student members willing to help out with sweat equity! We’re based at t

he Sanford Regional Airport (KSFM) in York County, Maine. Our operations area is huge, with plenty of room for student pilots. Imagine a place where your kids play outside, surrounded by good role models. Imagine if they were to participate in all kinds of projects and learn responsibility. Imagine if you were there with them… except when you were off soaring. At Sanford Soaring, our goal is to build a great community for the entire family. Where math and science are applied daily in fun and exciting ways, where professionalism and friendliness are a way of life and where great memories are formed.

Tigger is going on a road trip! She’s heading home to Elmira, visiting family at K & L Soaring, maybe checking out the National Soaring Museum and increasing her gross weight. Sounds like a vacation to me! 🙂 She’ll be back in a few weeks. (Tom... thanks for the tow!)

Last flight of the year @ Sanford soaring. Not a great thermal kind of day but lift off the solar panels worked. Gliders all packed with care in the hangers for the winter.
