SOARING RECORDS
The SSA maintains a very nice online state, national and world record database in a very easy to use format on their website. Go here to take a look at TN or other records, and while you're at it notice how the names of the record holders are also links which you can click to see badges, records, and contest standings held by each pilot. It's really a lot of fun. Should you have questions about TN records listed, or wish to apply for a TN record; contact our Tennessee State Record Keeper, Linwood Stevenson: linwoodstevenson@mac.com
To help plan your own flight have a look a the list of Possible Tasks.
