mountains. I was watching on an IMAX Dome which sort of distorted the
image so I'm not sure if it was CGI or not, although I suspect it

I made it back by
Tony[_5_]
Somewhat revolutionary (for me), I actually returned to my point of
takeoff yesterday after a good cross country flight. I took the new-
ish to me NG-1 (a modified BG-12/16) out for a 300 km FAI triangle.

Fredericksburg MG contest by
Thomas Knauff
The second contest day was even more difficult. No clouds, weak lift, strong
winds.
No finishers on a minimal task.
The downtown parade Friday morning may be the day's highlight.
