Come Fly With Me

A long time ago in another universe, I used to fly gliders. I found a link to a Youtube video that shows you what it is like to fly the Blanik high performance sailplane.  I have over 2000 flights in the Blanik mostly as instructor. We used to do all of the things in the video clip. On my first date with Wenda, I took her up in a sailplane like this one and did most of these maneuvers with her in the front seat. She was a trooper and loved it. Click here to see the video clip of the Blanik sailplane.
