Passenger Safety (Generic) Briefing Card

Agreed, One of our instructors had an elderly (80 years young)
woman on a first ride in a blanik L 13 on a winch tow! When they were
about 600 feet the winch quit. Now that in itself was not the problem, you
see he found himself in a litttle thermal and being the good glider pilot
he was he declared " I think I can save it!" She simply said "do you
best" and profusely thanked him when the eventually landed for "saving
her life"!

A matter of semantics!



out the way he planned. What he said was "aw, we're not going to make
it".
