Default My best of 2016

Flying my ASK-13 "Cabriolet" convertible sailplane off of Harris Hill (Elmira, NY) at the International Vintage Sailplane Meet in July 2016. Made 33 flights taking young and old aloft to share the open cockpit experience. I had scattered Fritz Compton's ashes on the crest of the hill so every launch out over that beautiful valley was very special.
