[Aus-soaring] Meteorology for Glider Pilots C E Wallington
Hi I am looking for a copy of this key Australian gliding meteorology text which has been out of print for quite some years now. I have searched online and cannot find a single secondhand copy for sale anywhere. If someone knows of a copy sitting quietly ignored on a bookshelf somewhere, please could you let me know as I would like to acquire a copy.

Hi Robert, It depends on which edition you want. I think the last edition produced was the 3rd (International Edition), which included discussion on Southern Hemisphere weather, amongst other things, unlike the earlier editions: You probably know all this. Anyway the point of this response is to note that the book (in at least the early editions), is readily available on eBay - Check Australian, UK, and USA sites. Did you see Pam's post earlier today on the BGA book/magazine scanning project? I am sure this book will be on the list, but I gather the project is still in its infancy: Any comments Pam?

It would be worth asking the BGA if it is available as an ebook, and if so which edition.
