Sounds like you'd have been quite at home in the
editorial offices at Pravda prior to 1991 Gary.

Bernard,
I am horrified by this story. I have no reason
to doubt the facts as you have presented them!
Having said that, I am keeping in mind, the
following ...... your story, her story, and the right story!
I consider that this is NOT a topic suitable
UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES that needs to be discussed on this forum.
Shame on you!
Gary

Dear all!
Please allow me to pass on some experience
gained during the recent WIG week (Women in Gliding) at Gawler.
The roof of my car was accidently dented by Mrs.
Jo Wooler - a fellow glider pilot from the Caboolture Gliding Club
in QLD. She lifted the right wing of the ASH 25
and by doing so she hit my car which she parked under the left
wing just a few minutes earlier. Fortunately the wing was not damaged.
This mishap occurred after she received free of
charge coaching for several hours in my ASH 25. She was extremely
apologetic for her lapse of concentration and
immediately offered compensation. Over the following days she repeatedly
assured me to cover the cost of dent removal in full.
However, after getting back to Queensland Mrs.
Wooler had a remarkable change of attitude. At first she suggested to
pay 50% of the repair costs and a week later she
e-mailed to say that it was:
..indeed shameful behaviour for
me to hold her responsible at all.
On request I can make copies of our
correspondence available. It makes for very
interesting reading and demonstrates
how easily humans are inclined to compromise
their moral and ethical standards when the impact on their hip pocket
becomes a little clearer.
Be warned - coaching and trying to help others
is not always a rewarding experience! When the total cost of less than
a week of coaching is approaching $1500 it can put you off proper!!!
