Default Decent Flight

Man! That must have been some momentum!

Seriously, awesome flight Gary. You remind me why I hang on to my
Woodstock for years when I don't get to fly it much. As you've said,
it's one of the best kept secrets in soaring.

Quite an achievement and what an experience!

I had a pretty good flight last Saturday. Was on pace to fly another
120-150 miles, but overflew the conditions and ran into the stagnant
remains of an old front that had been infecting the pahandle region
for several days.

Some inaccuracies in the article, as always, but it is a new world
record by some 100 miles.
