e-mail from soaring pilot and Cadet Sailplane Racing Team Coach:
Matty

I'd like to be the 1st to congratulate the Cadet Sailplane Racing
Team for winning the 2010 Collegiate Soaring Association (CSA) Trophy
for the 12th time in the last 16 years with 6 a six year win streak
(out
of 17 registered clubs in the CSA).
This is due primarily to the team having flown 20,280.65 miles
flown
in FY 10, to place them in the top 20% out of 1377 soaring clubs in
the
world.

Next time you seem them, congratulate them!

//Signed//
Mr. Mark F. Matticola, GS-12, USAF

Amazing what can be accomplished by the generous application of my tax
dollars. *Go AIR FORCE.

Walt,

You may have missed this previously, but the gliders raced by the
USAFA team were generously donated by the USAFA Alumni Association.

The few gliders available to the Collegiate Soaring Association were
generously provided by SSA members. Other collegiate pilots must
otherwise use club or rental gliders.
