Antelope Valley Soaring Club (AVSC) is located in Adelanto, California.  Adelanto is less than a 2 hour drive from most Los Angeles and Inland Empire cities.

The Club was established in 1955.  Originally located at the old El Mirage airfield, in 1988 El Mirage field was closed, so the AVSC moved to Krey Field.  Krey Field is located only a few miles away from El Mirage dry lake.

AVSC is a charter member of the Soaring Society of America.  We are a non-profit organization.

The main objective of the AVSC is to promote and encourage the act of motorless flight.  Promotion of soaring excellence is enhanced by the benefits of having good equipment, great planes, and a fine location.

The club offers five planes - (1) Schweizer 2-32 (2 place), (2) Schweizer 1-26 E, (1) Schweitzer 1-34 and a Blanik L-13 (2 place).  These planes are all flight-line ready and free of rental costs to all club members.  Parachutes and other equipment are also free of fees to club members.

Club membership is limited to 60 active members.  Low membership numbers mean high availability of the ships and equipment.  We currently have active memberships available.

AVSC has its own resident CFI Instructor, and its own FAA Designated Examiner, the only examiner for gliders available in San Bernardino County.  Come on out, learn to fly, and get your license. It's that simple! Flying lessons are available on most weekends.   Also available is a flight check pilot for those people needing current flight standings.  Come on in and see us.

If you'd like to join, come on out to the field, meet and greet, fly with Gene (our CFIG) and let's get acquainted! If you're right for the Club, and the Club's right for you, then fill out an application (right click and select Save Target As), and bring it to the next meeting.

Currently Krey Field has operations on Friday, Saturday, and some summer Sundays.

If you are looking for a well established, quality soaring club with excellent flying conditions, four planes, pilot training, un-crowded skies, and plain old good times, come by and join us at the Antelope Valley Soaring Club.
