Are You Ashamed to Land Out?
Read the article regarding the diminishment of guys pursuing badges and a commonly held misconception that it takes greater than 30/1 to do xc, another thought came to mind. Namely, is there a stigma attached to landing out within the modern soaring community? Could this be a reason why guys are not overly enthusiastic about xc flight unless they own or have access to a high performance machine?
I think most of you regulars on here know my thoughts on the matter but I am interested in what you guys think. Dan
