Self Fly Gliders
I think I'll stay home today and get in a good flight... Why bother to
go to the airport and actually drag my ship out of the hangar?

Self Fly Gliders
Work done by Mark Maughmers students at Penn State. John Bird and Jack Langellan earned an OSTIV diploma for their paper to the 2012 Congress which I believe started this line of work.
John presented at the SSA Convention in Greenville on autonomous Soaring. I was bummed that it was during the same time as my talk so I missed it. Cool stuff! Maybe we should get them to sniff for us at contests.
