Last time I was in Chiangmai, 34 years ago, the
scenery was beautiful. I flew there and back to
Udorn in a C-47, my only flights in a Gooney Bird.
It is a beautiful part of Thailand, several mountains,
the Thai silk industry and a lot of wood carving and
Pottery (Thai Celadon) was centered there. Lots of
stuff for family members to do while you are flying.
Also, the weather isn't as hot and humid as the rest
of SEA. Great vacation spot if you aren't a beach person.

soaring withdrawl, does anyone know of any soaring
sites in southeast
Asia? I have spotted a few in Austrailia, and there
is certainly
Omarama in NZ, but both are too distant for a weekend
getaway.
Are there any web sites which list global soaring sites?
Sort of like
