Thanks for posting, Kirk
Schumann s not a glider pilot and it looks like he never flies in a glider-rich environment or contest. He only seems to be here to stir controversy and malign PF, a real obsession for him. Pavlovs's dogs could not be more predictable, just throw him a bone with PowerFlarm on it and - bam! There he goes. Maybe it's best to ignore him...

Yeah, I was bored at work so decided to waste some time. But really, I'm not trying to change Mike's mind (life is too short...) but to correct his misleading propaganda.

Also, I'm always irritated by the resistance to PF by the majority of the US gliding community - coupled with the "deer in the headlights" stare I get for all the local club glider pilots when I try to explain how "see and avoid" is biologically impossible and that what is really happening is "big sky theory".

Cheers!
