Ever flown in an open-cockpit sailplane?
You can at Marfa, Texas, October 12-28, 2018 in my restored Schleicher ASK-13!
See photos at my Facebook page as "Burton Compton."


I just returned from the annual Vintage and Classic Sailplane Raly at Lawrenceville, IL hosted by the Wabash Valley Soaring Association. What a great club of guys and gals! Fun to be flying along with an original Phoenix fly as well as a Zugvogel and the Midwest glider, among others.

RSVP soon for my "Vintage and Classic Sailplane Camp" at Marfa in southwest Texas, October 12-28, 2018.
This will be a one-time event so this is your year to fly vintage and classic sailplanes at historic Marfa, site of the 15th National Landmark of Soaring.
