In today’s interview with Uli Klausing, we discuss his formative years as an aspiring glider pilot in Northern Germany where he discovered his love of flying as a teenager around the Baltic Sea. The flying culture, comradery and support network of the clubs in this region have had a long-lasting effect on his flying career and has inspired him to begin his own Yukon Glider Association in the Yukon. As he nears retirement, Uli has made the time commitment and connections necessary to fulfill his desire to start the Yukon Glider Association as he shares his passion for flying without an engine.
The 100th anniversary celebration of Yukon aviation is scheduled for Sunday August 16th2020 at the Yukon transportation Museum where Uli will have his glider on display along with information regarding his proposed Yukon Glider Association. Please drop by the static show and learn more about how you can become involved in this new to Yukon initiative.
