Hod Taylor
I spent a year or so teaching wave soaring at the Black Forest Gliderport in the early 1970's. Had a few chats with Hod in that time. Sometimes he would come park his ASW 15 off your wing when you had a student and on a few occasions he would come in 'off your six' and barrel roll as he passed always giving a little start to your student. OH, that's just Hod Taylor you might say. Miss him and miss those days. Also ran Owl Creek in Fort Collins for a few months when Fred Herr another character out of soaring legend took a trip out of town. Miss them all. They are watching over us somehow
