I have a PPL with a glider rating. All my flying these days is in sailplanes, mainly my '74 Pilatus B4. I am also a member of the recently formed Everglades Soaring Club. We purchased our first plane, a nice 1-26, in May. This weekend we are taking delivery of our second ship, a Blanik L-13.

yea i fly at the Borders gliding club at the borders of scotland, it's been around a fair while now long before i joined. Erm i grew up with winch launches as i used to fly in southern england but now up here at borders it's aerotow only as the club say the filed isnt of a decent size to make winch launching worth while

well my dad has a k6cr that i fly a fair bit but now he lives at the opposite end of the UK to me i dont fly it much, so now it's a single astir, alliance 34 or k21... preferably the astir :) ooh seminole lake had just bought a DG1000 last time i was there, they fly like a dream :O

sadly not been flying much for a couple reasons... im knee deep in EASA engineering exams to get into aircraft maintenance and the other being poor british weather catching up with us, its rained, it's flooded and with the borders of scotland being so high up low cloud days are pants as the hills disappear into cloud :( but hey im hoping the autumn/winter brings us a good wvae season.
So is the everglades soaring club anywhere near seminole lake gliderport? I flew there a few years back it was lovely :)
