The real story is in the improvement of the Pompano Soaring fraternity. As some of the &#8220;old guard&#8221; in Central Florida age a bit and move on, the &#8220;younger&#8221; pilots from the South have really stepped up their game. Jamie Mercado, Paul Mittendorff and Mike Naylor have improved in leaps and bounds during the last 2 years. We look forward to meeting with this enthusiastic society of soaring groupies again in 2012.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FSS (Florida Soaring Society) 2011 Series The Florida Soaring Society consists of a group of Florida RC Soaring Clubs with dedicated pilots who enjoy thermal duration flying.
