Default Gliding on Discovery Channel

There is a Discovery Channel Broadband segment in the USA but it is not
the same one; it is only 1 minute long.

http://dsc.discovery.com/beyond/play...99-532-ah-0036

click the tab on the top right that says "Video Search" and search
for either "sailplane" or "soaring" and the segment loads after a
commercial.

You can view the Discovery Channel's Daily Planet show about Freedom's
Wings Canada on a broadband connection. The show features the gliding
simulator in a starring role, and is rated 5 star on the web site. To find
it go to:
www.discovery.ca
Then click on "Discovery Channel"
Then click on "Broadband" in the box at the top
A new page will open and load a player. When it is loaded, select "Daily
Planet" at the tabs on the top right, and choose the September 15th show.

You'll have to endure a short segment about the effects of Mintos in a
bottle of Diet Coke, but the big feature is on gliding. We have had a
fantastic response to this broadcast.
