way, anybody who hasn't seen the rules of the air, including the 200 ft rule

It's a SCGC Camden log book, probably produced in the early 70's, at the
latest, (fist logged flight 2/12/75) probably before the GFA log book
even existed, perhaps ?
Inside back cover is History / Ratings, but opposite page does have
General Information which includes
Pretty sure my first GFA logbook (circa 1974) had the rules of the air, I'll
have to dig it out of storage to check. My second and third (current) GFA
log books have the rules of the air on the last page.
Perhaps someone with older GFA logbooks would like to comment?
Probably a good argument to

Stop it, You'll all go blind! Can we please find another topic, c'mon
think, what about something like what you have done to make soaring fun,
maybe some good stories, true or false. Its winter.. warm us up. The
story from the late MV was a good example. Here's mine to start things off.

Hi all,
The Beverley Soaring Society has a new DG-1000 (without a
trailer) coming from Germany
to Australia
near the end of March 2006. If anybody is thinking of purchasing a glider and
would consider sharing the container space then Id be keen to hear from
you.

Hello Michael
I suggest that you get in touch with the
Bathurst Soaring Club.
They have purchased an ASK 21 which is due
for an ex-works
delivery in October of this year.

If the rule was made in the 60's say, back when Leigh's slow bird was
the standard, consider what a relative modern standard should perhaps
be, given higher speeds etc. Perhaps it should be 300 feet or more, say
100 metres.

Imagine the discussion such an incident would
create on this list today. Not an unknown happening though.
ACW Margaret Horton was stationed at Hibaldstow, Lincs. One
windy day in 1945, she sat on the tail of a Spitfire as it taxied out for
take-off. Now the custom was for the ground crew

Why are we getting so focused on 200'? How many glider midair collisions
have there been from people misjudging how close they were? I would imagine
that in most midair collisions, at least one pilot didn't see the other
aircraft, therefore being at least 200' away from the other glider was a
moot
Well stated Mike,

Good to have you with us at the GNZ AGM - Your address was well received.
Have been getting some enquiries for your Power Point forms as promised.
Could you let me have the file some time at your convenience.
Warm regards
