Freedom's Wings Event

Freedom's Wings International (FWI) is a non-profit organization run by and for people with physical disabilities. They provide the opportunity for those who are physically challenged to fly in specially adapted sailplanes, either as a passenger or as a member of the flight training program.

The photos following were taken during the PGC Freedom's Wings event conducted on May 20th. and 21st., 2006 at the PGC Gliderport. Freedom's Wings extends their thanks to the extended PGC community for hosting this wonderful event. (Letter)

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
