Ample RV spaces are located within the designated camping area west of the clubhouse. They are are available on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. Every trailer or RV must be occupied and moved off the gliderport for at least 24 hours once every 60 days to comply with Washoe County regulations. Tent camping is allowed in the Memorial Grove.

There are no hookups available for water or electricity and no grey water disposal, so campers must be self contained. Restrooms, showers, a food prep area and a washer/dryer facility are available. Each camping space is approximately 30x50 feet which will accommodate even the largest motor home.

RV spaces are allocated by assignment. It is imperative that no person occupies a space other than the person to whom that space is assigned. To reserve a space contact David Volkmann.

Substantial work has been done to develop Air Sailing as an oasis in the desert. Over 50 shade trees are flourishing due to regular watering from a recently-installed automated drip system.

In 2002 Air Sailing opened the doors of the clubhouse. This spacious building serves as a cool and comfortable respite from the hot sun as well as a classroom for all of Air Sailing's educational events. It features a food prep area (shared fridge, microwave, sink etc.) and pilot briefing room as well as bathrooms and showers. Hot and cold running water and electricity make the clubhouse seem just like home.

In addition to the shower facilities in the clubhouse, there is a newer bathhouse with showers, flush toilets and bathroom sinks with mirrors. There's even a washer and dryer!  

A covered gazebo near the family area has picnic tables and a communal barbecue.  A second gazebo nestles under the trees near the flight line so non-flyers can enjoy picnics and watch the gliders in comfort.

Air Sailing is "off the grid" and electricity is generated by solar panels and stored in a substantial battery array. A diesel generator serves as a backup system. Power is supplied to the hangar, clubhouse, and bathhouse.  We urge you to conserve electricity, especially during the "quiet time" between 10pm and 9am when the sun doesn't shine and the generator does not run. 

The hangar can hold gliders with a maximum wingspan of 18m. Many frequent fliers at Air Sailing keep their gliders assembled in the hangar all summer long, though there may be room for additional weekend guests. To reserve a space contact David Volkmann.

For pilots wishing to tie down outside, several cables are installed for gliders and trailers. There is ample room for at least 20 gliders.
