Blast from the past.
Didn't I read somewhere that Neil ("giant step for mankind")
Armstrong was a Gold C pilot?

Now we're *really* into trivia...

The back cover of a 1960's "Soaring" magazine features the 4 co-owners of
the 300th, brand spanking new, Schweizer 1-26...one of whom is the (then

in a Libelle.
