Gliders have always been a part of the Oshkosh experience. Seldom in
the forefront except during the airshow, they are represented by
gliders on display, the SSA booth and through two forums, the first on
gliding and the second on motorgliders.

I've always thought gliders have been a pitifully small part of Oshkosh.
At least once during the show, the sky should be filled with gliders. In
hindsight, a great part of the show would be to have a Wright glider
towed up, then descend while the absolute latest, greatest carbon bird
follows. I know it is hard to sequence in with the powered planes, but
what an opportunity the glider community is missing!


See you at OSH?

Swing by the booth for the Naval Air Systems Command tech transfer (I
forget which hanger). I'll be there defending my country. : )
