Santa Barbara Airport Sculpture
I was in USA a few months ago, sitting at Santa B Airport waiting for a
flight to Denver. I was in awe of the beautiful sculpture of a soaring glider outside the terminal. It sat on a pole and banked and turned as the wind gusted and changed. Who built this thing?? Cheers Fish

Tim Lawton is the Community Education Liaison at the airport, and might be able to help you.
