Glider destroyed by lightning

Your point about the duration of your introductory or re-introductory
flights almost earned you a place in my "save" folder in case you later
turned out to be located somewhere near my path of travel--since my
introduction was long ago and only about 20 minutes. However, your envelope
address and lack of a sig-line negated what might have been a successfull
use of "web 2.0"

I can imagine a glider flight in the mountains being really great.
My brother learned to fly gliders in the Alps, in southern Germany. He loved it.
Over here, one of the few glider flights I had made me feel bad in the stomach,
which is rather unusual for me. But we were doing really tight turns, and I
probably looked too much at the ground.
