The press release is poorly worded. I believe this is the NTSB Safety Recommendation Letter dated March 31, 2008: Gee, thanks. I was aware of this. I was trying to point out that this has nothing to do with vintage planes without an engine driven electrical system. You dont normaly see a champ flying wave at 16000 MSL. The manor in which sailplanes are flown is what makes this an issue.
