In June 2023 Sunflower Gliderport near Hutchinson KS will host the FAI Pan American Continental Gliding Chamiponships. This will provide Western Hemisphere pilots to compete at a high level under international rules!
Practice June 3-5
Contest June 6-17
Classes:
Club (IGC Range)
15m/Standard Handicapped
If you're a US pilot interested in participating you need to let Pete Alexander know. cloud...@mac.com. Pilots for this competition must be named through the US Team. If you aren't ranked towards the top of the list, don't fret. They let ME participate as a reserve pilot in 2015!
If you are from another Western Hemisphere gliding country and are interested, please contact me at abco...@gmail.com. We're ready to help in any way we can with lodging, gliders, etc etc.
We look forward to seeing you all at Sunflower next Summer!

Tony,
Loved the Pan Americans when we had them in Canada. Unfortunately, I'll be CD at the 15 Meter/Open Class Nationals during that time.
Cheers,
Rich

Tony,
I have flown all previous PanAms in Chilhowee, Argentina, and Canada, and love them.
I am very disappointed that I will miss Kansas because of the scheduling conflict with the 15m National’s in Cordele.
If it is not too late, would consider rescheduling for July which falls between 15m at Cordele and 18m at Uvalde in August?
I am sure many other US Team pilots will be forced to make a tough decision and it is a shame.
Hoping you can reschedule!
