Sad news for an icon in Soaringhttp://www.stuff.co.nz/marlborough-express/news/2771344/Gliding-champ...
That is very sad news :-(
I was looking for video of Ray on the net and could find only this,
commenting on Ely:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65Q42T-RdwU
Does anyone have more that could be uploaded? *The scene in "Lucy
Learns to Fly" in which Ray explains wave to Lucy and Gavin would be
great. I have it on VHS, but no longer a working VHS player, or any
way to digitize it.
That is my video I took of Ray in 1999 at Ely.
We were standing around in the morning BS'ing and I had the video
camera handy.
So we shot that little skit about how bad the gliding was at Ely.
A fine pilot and good friend he will be sadly missed by all who new
him.
The best film record of Ray I think is still "champions of the wave"
