During today's first webinar, we covered glider accident statistics and preventing launching accidents (40% of glider fatalities) in a session that lasted nearly two hours. A few pilots had difficulty logging on to the session. Comments so far are very favorable. The cost is far less than for gas...

See: http://www.asa-soaring.org/images/front/pic5.jpg Found on display on a rest stop kiosk on Interstate 10 in southern Arizona. It's a photograph of a grainy photograph and hard to tell what the glider is. Any ideas? 2NO

For those of you flying ASW15, ASW20 and a myriad of other RV's and everything else from airboats to Salt Flat racers with canopies from Todd's, Todd was in a crash on June 11 and sadly died on June 12. We were just informed this morning. Twelve year old Gabriella was with her dad and survived....

I don't believe we ever crossed paths, Condolences to those that knew him.

I noticed over on glidingmagazine.com that Tom's talks at the SSF were broadcast on the web this past weekend. They report 8,000 viewers. Are they still available on the web?

Enjoyed the comfort and convenience of my home office while "attending" Tom's first of three weekly Saturday morning Glider Safety Seminars. It was a "webinar - short for Web-based Seminar, a presentation, lecture, workshop or seminar that is transmitted over the Web" according to...

Has anyone read this? What is your opinion? Tom Knauff certainly doesn't provide any facts to support his conclusions. The following statement in particular should anger each glider pilot, CFIG and examiner: "The point of this is the demonstrable fact that most glider pilots do not have the...

I was in Tonopah recently and the motel clerk mentioned that all hotels and motels were booked solid for July 7-11 due to a motorcycle rally hitting town. Sounded like useful info for this group. Martin

Tony Condon is on a downwind dash from Wellington, KS. Last I heard, goal was somewhere in Texas. Cloud base should be pushing 7000 AGL, and tailwinds in excess of 30 knots. B/S ratio forecast is pretty low, but I have flown on similar sorts of days and found the lift to be very good. Will see...
