Glider Flying Handbook - Aug 2006

FAA after several years of preparation has just published the "GLIDER FLYING HANDBOOK". It is a good comprehensive book (11 chapters). Bob Wander wrote portions of it and SSA was heavily involved. It even has a few pictures of Ximangos including one on the cover. Some coverage of flying motorgliders is included. I recommend it.

Available from Bob Wander at www.bobwander.com or SSA and soon at a number of larger glider operations. Bob says: "Summary: FAA Glider Flying Handbook is, by a very large margin, the most authoritative, the most attractive, and most comprehensive study guide in the American soaring marketplace. Very reasonably priced at $34.00" He is advertising it for $31.

Hi Heinz:
I'm sorry to hear about Chuck.  We were in contact before the SSA
convention regarding the 2 Ximangos that you guys have at Spruce Creek.
Please send him my get well wishes.  I'm traveling for the next 2 weeks,
but would like to talk to him about the planes when I get back.
I hope all is going well for you.  Did you ever get the Jag restored?
All the best,
Tom Frazer
