2026 Contest

MSA will host the 2026 15m and Sports Class Nationals at Mifflin County Airport, from May 15 through May 23 (Friday through Saturday), with practice on Thursday, May 14. (Aerotows are expected to be available at Mifflin prior to May 14.)

Either a glider-mounted ELT (121.5 MHz / 406 MHz) or a satellite tracking device (e.g. SPOT or InReach) is required in every glider. A Personal Locator Beacon (PLB) or other device that requires pilot action to activate is not considered an acceptable substitute.

You must complete on-site registration before any contest or practice-day flying. Registration (including collection of the balance of fees due, verification of registration paperwork, collection of signatures) will be available in the MSA clubhouse at times listed in pre-contest emails.
