Is that on foot or in the air, just wondering how money teaches someone how
to get home?
Arent the retrieves the fun part of gliding, I mean there are more stories
out there about retrieves that were shall we say interesting than completed
flights. Laugh at people going on retrieves without trailers, having a
glider already in the box when you arrive, going the wrong way, or Ian
Grants classic of driving over 700 kms to retrieve a glider 35km away. Some
of Kieth Nolans antics could fill a book. He used to carry an empty petrol
tin with him so people would think he had run out of petrol. Never forget
the time he was picked up out of Ararat with a couple of lads who had been
sampling some of their crop of funny tabaccy in an unregistered ute and
being deposited on the outskirts of town because of that. They didn't want
to go into town, just around it.
Up north, dont you just take a length of auto tow rope and tow it back that
way?

For a small amount of money, I'll gladly teach you how to get home, even
on
the difficult daze when others land out in the most remotest parts of the
country

I'll be looking for my regular retrieve crew for Alice Springs in
October as well. There are a few roads out there this mosquito hasn't
been to.
