Default U.S. glider operations fuel prices

Oh yes, about airport land. I'll bet way back when the 1600' was bought, someone suggested buying more land for a longer runway. The response was probably, "No way - that would mean buy $5,000 or more of land." Today, that looks like it would have been a bargain. In 50 years, $1 million will look like a bargain.
