How can we capitalize on this? Smile discretely from under your bucket hat, take off your aviator sunglasses and squint your best 'bedroom eyes'. Thanks to this movie, people will finally 'get it', that money, sex, and soaring are three sides of the same coin. |

Well, I adore the soaring, but I'm shelling out lots of money, gathering none in return, and not getting so much as a sniff of the sex, so either I'm doing it wrong or that's a strange three-sided coin.

Why do I know this? My club, York Soaring Association sold the production company a Gob Twin Astir wreck, which has been used, mounted on an armature in front of a chroma screen, to double for the DG 1000 in the close-up shots. Pfft. As if there's anyone who won't instantly recognize the difference between a Twin Astir cockpit and panel and a DG1000 one!!! Did they change the canopy hinge to the left side like they did on the Duo in Thomas Crown? And, yes, while it's nice to see soaring in feature films, I don' t know if it helps that it's always a mega rich and powerful prick who is doing it! As I tweeted yesterday: https://twitter.com/BruceHoult/statu...41215905034242 https://twitter.com/BruceHoult/statu...41680378056704 https://twitter.com/BruceHoult/statu...42691775770624 50 Shades of Grey trailer briefly features a DG1000 glider, same as I fly/teach in. Thomas Crown flew a Duo Discus. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjWrXLhYg7Q#t=95s While it's nice to occasionally see them as playthings of the rich & powerful, the reality is my first instructor was literally a butcher. Our club has all types: farmers, electricians, plumbers, cops, IT, accountants, engineers. And a few unemployed & retired. Btw, I'm also trying tweeting some pics from races I'm doing online in Condor. Got some comments...

50 shades of grey glider, whose glider is that in the movie trailer
Hi: I came across your info while searching for glider info from the FSOG movie. I have a FSOG website and I have been searching the filming locations and information. Would you be willing to share information about the glider used in the trailer? Its really interesting that they used it from the books. I am still looking for the location they filmed the scenes at near Vancouver BC. Thanks for any help.

Wow! Just watched the trailer for FSOG. My life is just like that! Well, except with a 48 year old Libelle instead of a DG 1000. |

Funny you should mention it. I swear I once saw an episode of "Dukes of Hazard" which featured a Blanik being auto towed by the General Lee. Have not been able to find evidence of this online though.
