The Portland Area Sailplane Society (PASS) is a chartered club of the Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA). Our members fly all glider classes including multi-task thermal, slope soaring, cross country, thermal duration and hand launch. We also fly electric, aerobatics, scale and fun-flying.
We are one of the most active R/C sailplane clubs in the United States. With over 200 years of combined experience among our members.
Each year, we hold several sanctioned events and welcome all AMA members. Our members enjoy the use of our thermal flying site in St. Paul, Oregon, and several slope sites that are within a 2-hour drive of Portland. We always welcome new members.
