OK, it's 7:00 PM, the sky has been completely overcast for hours, you have
5000 feet and your looking at a 50 mile final glide. Now SKILL your way home.

You don't grasp the concept, JJ: with skill, the pilot is 50 miles out
at 6 pm, not 7 pm, and gets home just before all the lift dies.

Since I can't buy skill either, I bought a motor.
