Some people have a tendency to try to fulfill their dreams.
Most people have some dream about being able to fly.
In april 1983, being 14 years old, I made my first start on the way to my glider license. I guess the fact that we had neighbours where several members of the family were active pilots, flying motorcraft as well as sailplanes, made it a bit easier for me to persuade my parents to allow me to start flying. Today she knows how wrong she was. Everybody getting the oppertunity should experience soaring. There is an enormous feeling of freedom that fills you when you release the tow line to make your left turn away from the towing aircraft while the speed slows down and you hear the noise from the motorcraft fading away to leave you with only the sound of the wind flowing against the plane - a silent whistling.
