When I lived in the U.K. for a period during the late 70's I remember a
newspaper headline to the effect that "Superman Makes a Forced Landing " -
Christopher Reeve had made an outlanding in a glider at a military airfield
somewhere in the middle of England if I remember it correctly. He did what so
many of us still love doing .

Chris borrowed our Astir-CS on a visit to Black Forest the year after
"Superman I", because it had the only 6-foot-4 cockpit on the
field...made a bloody good wave flight in it, too.
