Default Seminole-Lake Gliderport is Thriving

Thank you for bringing it back to the intended subject. It's good to
hear that SLG is doing well. And who knows if the ownership reverted to
the Romanian government? They might take great joy in running it
themselves!

It was not my intent to get political but I just couldn't let a
particular statement go without response.

The "vote Trump everyone" blended so well with the attitude of this post I could see it coming before I read it.

With apologies for bringing this back to the subject of Seminole Lake Gliderport (although, as a 'non-resident alien' I am gobsmacked by this current exercise in 'democracy'), I returned for my ~15th season as a Snowbird at SLG, and it is indeed thriving. The facilities have never looked better (Chapeau Karen), the newer faces are indeed wonderful additions, and the business seems to be increasing. As a private owner, I am a little remote from the instruction/rides aspect of the operation, but while rigging, I sure see a lot of tows launching.

If the ownership were to transfer to Romania, it heartens me that they would have a healthy business to sell to a US owner; the prospect of its continued operation only enhanced by its ongoing success.

And a doff of the hat to Rich Owen, who has temporary custody of the place. So y'all c'mon down and fly.
