We did this for ourselves, and we did this for everybody in soaring.

And we won!

We all now have a legal foundation in case law that supports soarings
right to fly at public use airports. Unless the public authority has
an "FAA Safety Study", they can not ban sailplane operations.

Sometimes the biggest news in soaring is not the new blinking gizmo on
your panel. *;-)

Thanks to many with special thanks to our attorney, Ron Cozad. *The
County has 30 days....

We kicked their butts!

Nice job! I've only flown there one in a glider but now there's a
chance I'll do it again.
