Replogle barographs were what ive killed. great stories!!!
Don't forget the Replogle equivalent of, "Hey, guys, watch THIS!!!"
Years ago we had a guy try and show some point on the barogram of his
Silver Distance flight to his O.O. in the back of the retrieve car he
was riding shotgun in on an Interstate heading for home. It got sucked
out the window, never again to be seen by any other glider pilot. A few
beers, hours, and uncounted instances of helpless, raucous laghter from
everyone he told his tale of woe to, even HE could began to see humor in
the situation!
