Default Glider books or movies?

If you can get a DVD copy of The Sun Ship Games you will enjoy perhaps
the greatest soaring film ever made.


I didn't know that any DVDs existed. The VHS tapes have long been
unavailable - commercially.

Martin, Frank, Wayne and others, thanks a bunch! *There is enough
material there to keep me interested for a long time.

Thanks!


Of course the Gren Seibles and Phillip Wills books are required
reading as well, and fall in the fun/chewable category with lots of
insight...

BTW, although DVD copies ofThe Sunship Game have been available for
some time, it IS set to be released from official sources (Drew &
Associates) on DVD in the near future, but the Bee Gees are holding up
the show with music right issues. I casually mentioned to Robert Drew
that he should maybe make it a "collector's edition" and include some
of the scenes/footage that didn't make the final cut, to which he
actually responded positively. What a fabulous movie though!!
