Default New/Old Video and Glider PR - John Denver & Janus

A crazy link took me to a John Denver video on You Tube.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4ChlFnXctE

It has been posted there a long while, but I posted into the comments, about the Janus perhaps being owned then by David Allen of Colorado. I think it is the Janus that was N2AA.

And I provided links to SSA and LetsGoGliding pages, if the link is viewed by more folks. We never know where folks will find an entre into gliding.

Perhaps some long time Colorado or Idaho pilots will tell me where that airfield is located. Telluride or Tetons or ??? The/A landing is shown as being solo (and less than movie-style pretty).

That Janus later came to live at Cal City for many years, and I have quite a few hours in the rear seat. It was later sold to a Brit, who exported it to Great Britain ~2006. I hope that lovely Schempp it still soaring, closer to her birthplace. Maybe someone over there will know?

It was a nice video to precipitate a flood of memories on a cold, blustery wavey fall day with rotor clouds out my back window.

Happy Thanksgiving week. We all have lots for which to be thankful.

Cindy B
