As a glider pilot I get a lot of questions and people freaking out!. For
instance, when a friend landing a glider in a field due to loss of thermals and not being able to make it to an airport ( a perfectly common thing in sailplanes, ive landed in fields 7 times) the person driving on a nearby road claimed an airplane "crashed" in the field. Soon the NTSB and several police cars were at the site. The glider was undamaged, the pilot was eating an aplle under the gliders wing, and the crew arrived 10 minutes later with the trailer and in 30 more minutes they were all gone. Just shows how basic (very basic) aviation should be taught in public schools. See ya Trace Lewis |
