Low test numbers on Standard Cirrus, what could it be?
I think it was George Moffatt who suggested that a glider designer who claimed a 45:1 L/D should be towed to one mile altitude and released....45 miles OFFSHORE!

That's a good one. They would probably make it to shore, fly to California City, then north to Minden and land back in California city all before sunset.
