Intolerance isn't very attractive.

By choice,  I prefer to fly larger planes.   But sometimes circumstances
make it inconvenient to drag a large plane along,  so it's nice to have a
smaller plane as well.   I have a selection of planes with spans from 148"
down to 70",  and when I'm flying I always have a good time.   I don't ever
recall standing in the grass under a cottonball sky flying even a small
plane wishing someone would stop forcing me to do it.

Some comic had a line about sex that went something like..."When sex is good
it's absolutely wonderful.    And when sex is bad.... (thoughtful pause)...
well, it's still pretty d****d good."

Flying RC sailplanes is a little like that.   Flying the 2M ship...  or the
sub-2M ship that I could take with me today is much more rewarding than not
flying that gorgeous unlimited ship that I had to leave home.

Sometimes we should just be a little more thankful that we're getting...
some action...  and not be so focused on slamming available options that
work.   For some folk,  flying a 2M ship is the only option that works and
they don't need a third party who isn't chipping in on the car payments
ragging on them about the date they brought to the dance.   Flying 2-meter
beats the heck out of not flying.

Now,  how 'bout a new thread...  one that's a little more positive.

Regards,
Tim
