Thanks to the glider pilot clones in Austria
I received this e-mail from my 16-year-old daughter who has been in
Austria about 25 km south of St. Pölten for nine months on a high school exchange. Before she left soaring was just one of those things her strange dad did. Now it is cool. The short wing comment is because my previous plane was a Nimbus 2. Not sure which club she saw, but I hope to visit the area in the future and take a flight. I assume this was south of St. Pölten a few km. Subject: You have clones in Austria Dad, Yesterday we were driving to St.Pölten and I saw this guy that kind of reminded me of you (he had the soaring hat on) and I was like, that is so not normal for here, he was just wandering around in a field you see. So then we drive for a minute and I'm thinking how cool it is to come home and see you guys and then I see all of these guys with the hats and then like 5 gliders (the wings were fo' sho' shorter than yours though) and they were all laid out in a field and I was like "hey hey, look - my dad does that" and it was cool. The mountains here are pretty small but yesterday was a really nice day so yeah...just thought that I would tell you. |
