Glider Traffic Pattern
Minden-Tahoe Airport is a renowned soaring location and is home to many glider pilots. Glider traffic traditionally departs Runway 30 from the glider staging ramp and will conduct a 270° left turn to overfly midfield while departing to the east. Inbound glider traffic will enter the patter from the east side of the airport.
