In wave, in blue hole at cloud level, hole closes, in IMC, then what?

In climbing we always said plan for the worse, hope for the best. Training,
training. Maybe one of the experienced legends of the sport can comment
here and add guidance.

One more thought. In the war bird community we had hangar flying sessions
where we talked about the emergencies we experienced and how we handled
them. These were priceless sessions! I learned what other pilots did in
situations I had never thought of. Maybe we should start a hangar flying
session on this site!


From the numerous-n-rapidly-arriving comments related to Bob Spielman's
IMC-related bailout, I'd guess the situation hits close to home for many
thoughtful gliderpilots...

I'll second the idea of Real Worth being found in hangar flying sessions, even
if only the unvoiced thought, "You gotta be kidding!" Thanks to everyone who's
shared so far!
