Academy’s Glider Team to perform at Aviation Nation

An Air Force Academy cadet piloting a glider performs during the Parents' Weekend Parade, Aug. 22, 2019, at the U.S. Air Force Academy, Colorado. The Academy's aerobatics team uses the TG-16A Glider, a two-seat, engine-less glider. The glider is towed to a designated altitude by a Piper Super Cub tow plane before being released and soaring in-flight by using thermals and prevailing winds.
