Default thanks Soaring Magazine

Back in the 90s I wrote an article about a 6 day soaring safari from the
perspective of both pilots who took turns flying and crewing. The magazine
told me it was too long and sent me a t-shirt.

It was published in the Black Forest newsletter.

Bob & Brad, I think Bill has it right, you guys could probably write up a
multi-issue article on building the Tetra-15/ HP24. Having followed the
progress it really is a very interesting story and should be told by those
who know it best. You could probably extract most of it from the HP website
and Facebook.

I don't really care that Soaring has given the HP-24 Project zero
coverage in Soaring Magazine. That is as I have come to expect.

But I think that Brad has been treated pretty shabbily here. His
Tetra-15 is arguably one of the best amateur-built sailplanes there
has ever been, and I think it would be nice if you didn't have to
subscribe to the Canadian national soaring magazine to read a few
column inches about it.

Thanks, Bob

Yours is a good story and it should be in Soaring. However, to get it
published, you have to write it. There are no reporters on the
Soaring staff. Just sending in photos won't get it done.
