1-26 (alt)
PW-5 (dur and dist) I must say the 5 hour duration part of the Silver seems like a MUCH harder task than the alt or dist. No matter what glider you fly, five hours is still five hours. At the point I did it, it was the longest I had ever continuously piloted any aircraft, despite over 1500 flight hours before that (also with no bathroom). Getting all that "official" is another matter. It took me six tries to get credit for the 50km distance, and it was ultimately for a 150KM+ flight... silly rules...  -- ------------+ Mark Boyd Avenal, California, USA
