Yes, Al Parker's 300K flight in a Schweizer 2-22 remains a remarkable achievement, even more so if--like me--you spent a fair amount of your early hours in one of them. For years, I'd hop out of our 201 Libelle or LS-3 and into a 2-22 for a BFR and be almost panic-stricken to realize how much force it took sawing away on the stick to fly it and how fast it dropped after we got off tow. Memories.
