Default Best soaring - is there any doubt?

Who is to say which is more fun?

Flying 800 miles in a glider in strong conditions, or perhaps flying
150 miles in moderate conditions where you never got above 4000' agl,
or doing 600 kts and dropping dummy bombs?

Some people are fortunate to be able to do all these things.

Its all fun, except when someone in the back seat starts hollering at
you to relight your turbines, and that slowing up in lift and saving
fuel is not in the hop objectives ;-)
