Sailplane & Gliding update

I guess patience is like circling in sink.

Looking at the 'death of glidingmagazine' thread, volunteers
stepped forward in a matter of hours. Perhaps the
Excomm should publicize its search efforts ?

Hopefully Gillian's list of all the contributors she
has encouraged over the years has not been lost. With
them and even a temporary editor the mag could be continued
rather than allowed simply to disappear.

All:

Yes the SSA is taking back the magazine which was transferred
to
Gillian in 2003. It was originally started by the SSA.

The ExComm discussion on the subject was held in Mid
September. That
was the first most of us knew that Gillian was retiring.

As of now, there is no editor. Discussions are ongoing
with several
individuals. Gillian will be a tough act to follow.
I doubt most
businesses could find a good hire in a very short time.

Your patience, a commodity in short supply amongst
us glider pilots,
is appreciated. Once I know more, I'll post.

Feel free to email me.
