LESC's Cross-Country Program

I'm posting the ICG format files of some of LESC's pilots on this page in hopes of inspiring others to go cross country and so we can all enjoy and learn from their flights. There are many ICG Viewers available that you can use to view the asscoiated files. My personal favorite is SeeYou.
