Right now Ron Schwartz is on course for a 1000km attempt out of Blairstown NJ in his schweizer 1-26. Who says you need glass or high L/D to go far.  
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
	
		 
		
	
	
	You can track his flight on the ssa.org live tracker. Go Ron! Dan 1-26 #225  |

looks like Ron landed back at Blaristown. 643 km by the tracking page. Not too shabby. A nice warmup flight. The days are getting longer
