  Friendly Competition - The OLC 

The On-Line Contest, an internet based International Soaring Competition, attracts more than a thousand gliding clubs from around the globe to compete against each other during the soaring season. The Canadian Rockies club has finished first in the Canadian OLC, and among the top 25 clubs world-wide, every year since 2001.

Six of the top ten pilots on the Canadian OLC flew out of Invermere in 2009.

Our club members now hold a total of 22 Canadian records!
  More Than Just Flying! 

We fly in the Rocky Mountains but the principle is the same!
Soaring
When a glider encounters an invisible column of rising air (thermal), the pilot circles within it and rises high enough to leave and search for another one.
  Top 10 Reasons to Join Us! 


  • We fly 7 days a week, from mid April until the end of September.
  • We're cost effective: our annual memberships and block rates are low, then you only pay for tows. There is no charge for lessons provided by Club Instructors.
  • Many basic training flights are high enough and long enough to include true soaring in mountain thermals.
  • Soaring is so good at Invermere, it's easy to keep all of your skills current.
  • We have many experienced cross country pilots willing to help you achieve your goals.
  • Invermere is a destination resort providing a wide range of activities besides flying.
  • Accommodation and great dining is close by and plentiful.
  • The scenery is unmatched anywhere in North America.
  • Our evening BBQs are legendary; there's seldom a need to dine out anywhere else.
  • Top pilots from all corners of the world, travel 1000s of miles to soar and tell their stories at Invermere.
