Default My best of 2016

I had a really good year in soaring with a number of great memories.
I think my favorite for this year was watching my friend Walter Cannon fly our 1-26, serial number 2 at the IVSM. It had been 61 years since he last flew that same glider.
Priceless.
Anybody else have a great 2016 memory?
Happy New Year to all my soaring friends

One of my highlights was flying your 1-26, #2 at IVSM. Hopefully in 60 years I get the chance again

Others...
500km thermal flight in February
400 Mile flight to "fly home" after the Uvalde Nationals were called
Soloing a 15 yr old (my youngest student to date)
