My guess is that they would all be grandmothers by now...

  Hmmm, some clarification required here Stuart.

   

  Should that PS be punctuated as;

   

  ...rode bare-back to my assistance...

   

  or

   

  ...rode bare, back to my assistance...

   

  ???

    The Libelle Canopy lock topic got well of track....was it resolved.

     

    It is the off track discussion that sparked this idea.

     

    We all have an outlanding story we love to tell, if you haven't you have 
been 

    spending too much time in the hangar (or on the computer). We have all sat 
round 

    at the end of the day flying the hangar and often telling tales of 
outlanding, many of 

    them embellished over the years - that is part of the fun.  

     

    What an idea for a coffee table book - A collection of Australian 
Outlanding stories. 

    The market will not be huge but it is one way that the exploits of the past 
will remain 

    part of the folk lore of Gliding.

    PS - I wonder where those 3 young maidens who rode bare back to my 
assistance after  

             my first real outlanding are these days.

    I was picked up from a farmhouse one glide south of Orrorroo on Christmas 
Day a long time ago along with 2 other pilots, where we were royally fed and 
watered; while the crews in the 3 car/trailer convoy had all the usual 
electrical & engine issues that elderly gliding cars and trailers have on a hot 
dusty day and that night.

    We'd all hit the sea breeze as we were heading south late in the afternoon, 
and after the all night celebratory drinks at least the pilots didn't care it 
was Boxing Day before we got home.
