My performance as a glider never got its big breakthrough
I got my C. and took my height gain and 5 hours to the
Silver C but was it, I found it was a too “hight aiming”
sport for me that my wife most of time sat down to earth
and hoped that it came safe down was too much for me so
we went over to Sailing.
But I met many wonderful people over the years I flew.
