Cherokee Kid Rides Again by Tony[_5_]
It's been way too long since I went soaring in the Cherokee. I had it out last year in September for our vintage rally but didn't get a chance to fly it myself as it was flown by friends visiting from out of town. This year I spent most of the season distracted from flying the Cherokee since I was...

1960 US team photos? by Tony[_7_]
Hey all - in reviewing Paul Schweizer's "Soaring Through the 20th Century", I realize there are no photos of the gliders being loaded or unloaded from the MATS aircraft, which I thought I had seen somewhere. Anyone have any leads? I suspect it was a C-124...talk about subsidies!
