soaring science fiction novel title request

Years ago I held a copy of a sci-fi novel involving a post nuclear war scenario. The protagonist flies to freedom from a fascist regime using a motor glider. The setting is North America after the Soviet Union strikes with nuclear warheads, leaving the USA in shambles. A Marxist type regime takes over with a police state loss of all personal freedoms.

Does anyone recall such a novel and possibly the title? I've looked through soaring bibliographies and cannot find it. I would like to reacquire the book (book went out on loan to never return, sigh). It was a very good read. I would like to restore it to my soaring library collection. Any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks,

Free Flight by Douglas Terman.

Thanks for the title. I've ordered it from Amazon as a used item. Good read.

I too recall something of that, but not well enough to give a reference.
"Trinity Bay" (I think) was published in Analog, by Glennis La tner (I'm sure I goobered that up), but it had to do with some runaway nano-tech (and a 60/1 glider with a talking vario)

Oh, just read the post by "Flynn, below. Don't you just love the ability to ask any darn question, and have such an awesome bank of experience out there on tap???
