Yippee! Soaring in Moriarty, NM by Chris
Did some soaring in Moriarty, NM (0E0) today to get prepared for my check ride. We did the boxing the wake (flying a vertical rectangle pattern behind the towplane), steep turns, stalls, slips. I did quite ok, so I hope to get my checkride soon. But it was really fun to ride the thermals of 8kn or...

York (Ontario, Canada) Soaring web site down by Tony Verhulst
York Soaring has an excellent "what is soaring" on their web site. Unfortunately, the web site, http://www.yorksoaring.com/, has been out of action for a few weeks. Does any one know when (or if) it will be back up - or if there's al alternate URL? thanx Tony V.

York and the OLC by Charles Petersen

You can now try Ramy’s scary outlanding on Lake Tahoe golf course on Condor by Bret Hess
Ramy completed the real-life very challenging outlanding in a tailwind, uphill. His glider had a little damage from a groundloop. I’m guessing he did the groundloop because he was very close to the trees at the end of the fairway. See the golf course in satellite view and his landing track at ...

You know you are addicted to soaring when.... by [email protected]
So I'm reading this thriller novel called 'Blowout' by Dorgan and Hagberg. It is set at a remote secret site in North Dakota, and the front cover shows a flat, featureless snow-covered plain with what looks like a chemical plant in the background. In the foreground, just above the title is a big...

Young Eagles push (USA) by John H. Campbell
Well, I did another 10 Young Eagle rides over the weekend. How about you? A reminder that if just one individual at every Club and FBO in the country would do a half dozen each month, the american soaring community could add 10,000 to EAA's total and bring them up to the 1 million mark by...
