Good Morning, I am entering my 4th year as the 3rd owner of ASW20 #20463, better known as Alfonso's 20. I grew up soaring in New Castle, VA, and saw Alfonso a few times but never really knew him. It is my understanding that he has bad dementia now. I know the former Miami gliderport was his...

From Ty White: I've learned that Carl Herold died on September 5 from complications of Alzheimer’s disease. He was 84 and had been in a memory care facility since 2011. I am not aware of any memorial plans. As many of you know, Carl played a big role in the history of PASCO and Air Sailing,...
