   The Osceola Short Course has been established to provide cross country experience and friendly competition to RWSA members who wish to practice their cross country skills without the need for extensive crew preparation or long retrieves. Pilots who use club ships must comply with all club regulations regarding use of club equipment for cross country flight. Click here to view relevant sections of the RWSA Operations Manual



   The competition is for the fastest time around the course. The Herold Handicap 2010 values listed below will be used to equalize the performance of various gliders. Results will be available on the web site as soon as pilots record their flight information in the online form. If you have interesting photos and narrative from your flight they may be posted as always in the photos and stories section of the site.
