Hi Lane,
Many SSA members may not be aware that many sections of the SSA web site have their own RSS feeds. Without these, it is easy to miss such posts, or committee posts.

Excellent article - great story. This would be a good one for Soaring Magazine, for all members to read, instead of just on the blog and RAS.

Frank,
I got my Glider rating in '95 and have owned 4 gliders now over the 20 years, and I still consider myself a "Student" as each season teaches more and more about about gliding and going cross country, this year I'm hoping to get my Gold badge in my 1-26D "Miss Betty Too" (I only need the 300km distance).
Wayne, the Jay Walker
PS I'm now 71 and still love the Joy of Soaring!

Great article! Don is a great guy! Don bought my Lak17a, F2 this fall so we spent a great deal of time together. He is planning on coming to the Ionia OLC event this spring. I will make a point of flying to Adrian on one of the days with Don. Ill try to get a photo of him over the field!!!
