Hello Ignat Solovey! a long time ago, possibly before you were even on the planet, I spent 3 weeks in the Soviet Union taking part in the Women's European Gliding Championships at Oriel.
I began flying gliders (and tow planes, etc) at the age of 50, and since than have flown approximately 1,800 hours in gliders, and l,400 hours in power.
Can you let me know how to contact the glider pilot you mentioned?
And if you would like a copy of my book, for review, of course, let me know.
You can send me an email at
[email protected].
Best regards...and welcome to PPrune!
