for
newcomers to be that far out though as other factors can make it harder,
unsafe or impossible to get home eg changes in the Wx, (Cb) loss of
daylight, intervening terrain or airspace or becoming unaware of your
position (can you spot your airfield from 50Km?).

Not to be out-done, the publicity-seeking Fritz von Opel piloted a glider
powered by 16 Sander rockets on September 30, 1928. The glider reached a

I believe this is a minor risk to glider pilots...
The energy required to ignite an epoxy/carbon fibre marix will require that the glider hits the ground at about 25,000 kph.
If you have suffient altitude to make this your groundspeed you are unlikely to hit a solid object (except perhaps the
I believe this is a minor risk to glider pilots...
The energy required to ignite an epoxy/carbon fibre matrix will require

Unless you fly one of the many Sailplanes of today that carry 2 stroke
fuel...
I think you missed the point :-)
CNN reports in this story that NASA's Helios flying wing broke the altitude records
for both a
propeller and jet aircraft with an altitude of 85,100 feet... and they
were still climbing shooting for 100,000.
