The recent issue of the ESA newsletter mentioned that there was a US group trying to develop a youth glider program based on the Lithuanian model. The article also mentioned that the group was using a Kolb based glider and I immediately thought that our own Victor Bravo might be involved. Not quite that easy...............

After a couple of quick e-mails I managed to track down the group and one of it's members:

They are actually doing something and have hardware in place. Maybe those of us here on HBA that have expressed thoughts about getting something like this started could/should work with them? They are still in the development stages and have done a few auto tows.
