It looks good, John, and I enjoyed reading it. The only two typos I noticed a - the caption for the second pair of photos is repeated in the text 6 paras below the photos. - the caption for the turn-point photo is repeated in the text three paras below the previous repeated caption.

Thank you so much for bringing back a flood of memories. I was on the ridge flying from RS the very day Karl made his run featrured in the article. Flying a Phoebus A, I did my 300K flight, encounterd my first experience with wave (mostly the rotor), and came home feeling bruised, battered, but loving life. My ego shrank quite a bit after finding out he had flown 3x's as far that day. He was off about an hour before me and hit Oak Ridge about about the time I was on my second or third celebratory beer.
