Thanks to everyone for the great info regarding plans-built gliders. I'm
still doing some research, hopefully will find something soon.

In the meantime, anyone have any suggestions for a good PC flight simulator
progam for soaring? I've loaded the trial version of "Soaring Flight
Simulator" and it seems pretty impressive, but before I part with the $70
registration fee, I thought I'd ask you gurus for your opinions.

I also have Microsoft FS 2000. Would it be worth the upgrade to 2004? Is
there a way to make it a better, more realistic, soaring sim?

Questions, questions. Someday I'll have answers to share too.

Thanks!

Curt
