Many thanks to AirAge, MAN, and Mike! I certainly will miss RCSE as it was my helper and companion trying to learn about soaring. It has been about 11 years for me now. I can sometimes scare my more skilled friends and have gotten up to LSF 4.1. RCSE has provided me with almost all of my planes. What is better are the people I think I know a little bit and the ones I have had the pleasure to actually fly with. All the other groups have code words - here there are names and sometimes insights into the people. For example: Joe Wurts - his advice has been much appreciated and his exploits are legendary. He came to Orlando once and I was priviledged to fly with him and enjoy a nice chat over lunch. And another example is Gordy who was at that lunch also. Gordy really has slept here! We have had a lot of fun flying together. There are lots of others I hope to meet sometime all thanks to RCSE. It has been great for me. Thanks to you all. Jim MacLean Melbourne, FL
