That's a beauty. Bet you feel better now that you posess your glider. Too bad that experience had to happen.
Steer clear of that sink-hole from now on.
We're planning on Saturday or Sunday, or both. Some good clouds today, hope they last for this weekend.
Please let Martin know and anyone else.

Posted: Thu Jul 21, 2011 6:46 pmHi Al and Sam!!
The colors on that Falcon are about the same as on my own Falcon (and Little Hawk). Here's a photo of both of them at Torrey last year:
Little Hawk is in the foreground (with prototype strings instead of wires) and my Falcon 195 is in the background.
And here's a picture of me flying my Falcon at Torrey last November. I flew for over 4 hours, and it was fantastic!!
P.S. It's great that you've got your glider, but be sure to only fly under the safe supervision of a good instructor. There are lots of dangers that you may not realize, so please stick with a good instructor!!!
