What does soaring produce the most of? Badges? Records? XC flight traces? Great pictures? Great stories? No. What it produces the most is SMILES!

A video taken from my DG landing at Sky Soaring outside of Chicago (http://skysoaring.com). I found myself following a friend's glider (another DG) in the pattern and inadvertantly made a great video of his landing.

Winch launch rope break during winch launch trials at in Alexandria, IN. This is not an exercise. Instructor was as surprised as the student. Expert piloting made the recovery and landing uneventful.

Why do you soar? Is it the view from above? Or the thrill of heights? May be the magic of motorless flight?
Why? Tell me why.
This is what some pilots said.
