Default Any news from Chile

Just a few months ago, many of us around the world enjoyed the
coverage of the 3rd FAI World Sailplane Grand Prix from the Club de
Planeadores de Vitacura in Santiago, Chile.

Any word on how the club and its members have faired in the recent
earthquake.

Our thoughts and prayers are with our fellow pilots and their
families.

Our thoughts indeed.

News reports suggest that Santiago wasn't as badly damaged as the
coastal cities to the SW but I'd like to hear our soaring friends are
OK.
