For those us who can't make it out there, are you planning
on making your slides or notes available?

thanks,

Some bizarre ideas on RAS about motor-gliders!
I did post this, if anyone is interested in,
ya know, facts and experience, as opposed to
Random Aviation Speculation...

Sane motor-glider pilots DO NOT try an air-start
until they have a pattern planned and are in
position for landing after a worst-case failure,
which takes more altitude than landing an
un-powered glider...

Enjoy,
Best Regards, Dave
