Bruno Gantenbrinck's essay pretty much says it


I read this excellent essay and was surprised to see Heini Heiress's
name listed in the essay. Heini's son - Dieter was killed in his
glider last month - 30 years after his father's death. A more safety
conscience pilot was hard to find. Everything about his glider was
also immaculate. He was a pilot that represented South Africa on three
occasions in the World Gliding Championships in the Std Class.

Soaring is a sport that can bite any participant - even the best!
