Agreed!

How about:
"In order to contribute OLC points to your club, at least 60% (more?)
of the flights must originate from (within ?? km of) the club's home
field."

-Tom

I also understand the humor in this thread, but would prefer it never
became a reality

Default Glider Pilots Wanted - Worldwide Positions

Having made an ass out of myself earlier today for not seeing the
"humor" in another thread, here I go again...

I really hope whomever posted this thread was making a joke. If not,
I would have to say I would be embarassed to be affiliated with
whoever posted it.
I wonder why they did not see fit to let their true identity be
known. I really hope it is someone posing as a Warner pilot, and not
truly one of our own.

I for one, would be the first to concede that if that happened, any
future "wins" would mean nothing at all.

I think I'll just go back to flying as fast and far as I can, and not
give a rats about any other statistics other than my own.

I wonder if the 126 Association will let me join them, even though I
fly a DG-800S.

I must be an ego maniac. Every sentance in my post has the word "I"
in it....

More support for my thesis regarding the collecitve (lack of) sense of
humor inherent in glassdrivers!

For you analytical types: When someone is inviting "Hooligans,
Neanderthals, Knuckle Draggers, Dirt
Bags, Soldiers of Fortune, and Lurkers (not you Lennie)" the offer
can be construed as a JOKE.

If they want KS, the P7 Unit, and JP, then they are probably serious.

Where is PEZ when you need him? No wonder he quit soaring and bought
a 195.

Sheesh

OLC Slut T-shirts are available at Warner Springs. (At least they
were.)
No need for a logger. A GPS file works fine for scoring club points.
I can't be the OLC champion with my Garmin, but it's my (lack of)
skills that really stop me.

Hi yall, Ideas should flow. Comments also. Good for the whole thing.
Wanna know about my super thermal generating invention?
How about an accelerated (Catapult) aided launch?
Ask me about the temperature difference inside a 2700 fpm thermal.
Open up the idea faucet. Fred
