Martin 123, please tell me you spend your time when flying KEEPING A GOOD LOOKOUT, not fiddling around in the cockpit, eyes inside.

And for the rest of you petrolheads, try flying without an engine. Its a lot more fun, and if they let you tug as well, can keep you current in power.

I had to step down from solo flying, alas, but since 1983 have clocked up over 1,800 hours in gliders and 1,400 in power, and have never been out of practice, teaching and tugging. The US is the best place to visit to keep current in power, the UK or New Zealand for gliding.
