Default That's OK. The Glider Will Hold.

This should start some great story's. I was landing my Ventus at Laughlin/ Bullhead city a few years ago, and lots of small jet traffic coming in for a conference was making it tough for the tower to sequence me in, (they were worried about me clearing after landing). So they asked if I could land on the taxi way and they would get somebody down to help me move up onto the ramp. To which I asked how wide between the lights it was. When they told me it was 60' I said no problem and proceeded onto final parallel with a citation landing! I managed not only to land but made the 90 degree turn up a hill onto the ramp and within a wingspan of a tiesown spot! I swear I could hear the controllers clapping
