just to set the record straight my glider received minimal damage and has
been repaired and ready to fly. The winglet was not torn off and I did
return to Uvalde airport. Stressful yes, and my heart goes out to Mike.
I visited him Sunday at the hospital and he was in fine spirits and he
truly represents the comraderie we all share in this sport. I cannot say
enough about Mike except I look forward to having a few scotches with him
when I visit my daughter in Houston. He's one fine and gracious
gentleman, one we can all be priveledges to know.
