Brian Glick plays a big part in the operation of any contest at Mifflin
and operations at Mifflin are second to none thanks to his management. He'll also tow you just about any day of the week in one of the finest towplanes on the east coast. I thought it odd that a Cordele contest report would gloat over numerous landouts at Mifflin. Mifflin is first class soaring supported by a first class organization in which he rightfully takes pride. Other people to thank... Iris Striedieck manages a contest so well she makes it look easy, and we shouldn't forget that it is hard work that she does very well. John Good kept his glider in the box all week in order to devote the necessary energy to doing an outstanding job as CD. Charlie would be proud. Richard Kellerman's (QV) weather briefs are the best in the business and he educates you along the way. There's more, but those are just a few of the notable people that made Mifflin so great this year. FM Gary wrote: Brian The CD was not the person writing the report. I would give the CD the benefit of the doubt because he is being quoted. The weather has been bad everywhere the last couple of years, it makes sense that a CD would say at a pilots meeting that they were lucky to be there at that site for that day if the weather was good. I don't think there's going to be a mass exodus from Mifflin to Cordele based on a comment from The Captain being the "preferred site". What I find puzzling is your disdain for the Captain because he may have slighted Mifflin as you trash Cordele. Cordele is a great soaring site with great people. Relax -- It's just a soaring report.

The problem is there are too many damn Yankees at Mifflin. I feel the
good ole boys should be allowed to fly for free to bring a bit of class to the site. Hooooooeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

Brian....don't have a cow, man!
You've taken a joking comment waaaaay too far out of context. There was no 'dis' intended. It was just a JOKE told at a pilot's meeting, and I take full responsibility for 'reporting' it. Had no idea this sort of thing would crop up on ras as a result! Sheesh! Your rude comments may have done more to harm Mifflin's reputation than defend it. My apologies to Andy McQuigg for even getting this mess started in the first place. J4 |
