If Oz hasn't welcomed you to the Crackerbox Palace, let me fill in
for him
through the holidays.

well...thank you...damm glad to be here..grin...it is always nice
to hanf around "the dock" ( virtual being...better than nothin' ) ) for
sailing
info and stories...


Boulder, Colorado? You wouldn't happen to know the auspicious
Gilligan,
would you?

nope...not off hand...are they a regular here on the board?


I admire any man or women that dares to soar in an aircraft without
any
engines. Merry Christmas!


thanx...merry christmas to you as well.....what type of planes do you
fly?
have you logged any time in a glider yet? if not, drop by your local
glider
port for the 10 min intro ride...it is a kick in the pants...gives you
a different
perspective on aviation (imho)...esp, if you enjoy sailing...there are
some un-canny
sims between the two sports....happy sailing and flyin' ...
