I really liked that article too, especially the top left corner of pg
22! ^_^ ...and the last paragraph on that page! ^_^

Gliding International continues to be the best at what they do, and
I'm not just saying that cause they put a photo of one of my prototype
ASW20 exhaust vents in the article Dan wrote about the 20 gathering,
but because it really is a great publication full of interesting and
relevant topics. Keep'em coming!
