When I was towing gliders at El Mirage in the middle 70s, there were 
stories of guys that had soared CG4As.  I never met any of them but it 
hadn't been that long after the war then.  A couple of years later when 
I was a powered airplane flight instructor, we regularly had students 
that were WWII military pilots that were taking up flying again after 30 
years.  Sometimes they were awful and we had to tell some of them to go 
back to golf.

Great ridge.  I've only ridge soared once and that was in Hawaii at 
Dillingham.  That was 30 years ago too.
