Poland

Reviewed by Trevor Atkins
This is the website of the Polish Vintage
Gliding crowd. Very comprehensive site, but it is the
extensive list of on-line movies that really sets it apart.
The movies are not small - you definitely want
broadband!

Many people have
now seen various articles of the spectacular wave that is know as
Morning Glory, which forms over Australia’s northern Queenstown. The
Cloud Appreciated Society’s founder Gavin Pretor-Pinney has produced
four short films, presenting the wave and gliders, all in superb
quality. In addition to these films the site will also appeal to
those who enjoy photographing from the cockpit for their own
pleasure.

Reviewed by
Marc
Morley This web site for the Dutch-designed and built Sagitta.
It is in English, and well presented with a wealth of information
and easy to use links. It also benefits from regularly updates. New
Zealand’s Sagitta is also featured, and is one of five currently
airworthy in the world. |

Vintage Sailplane
Pictures

Reviewed by Robert Smits A very well
layed out website with historic pictures of gliders and sailplanes,
throughout history and from all over the world. Pictures are often
scanned in originals, but also modern ones of restored gliders. All
photographs are categorised after make and model. There are also
categories for famous gliding people and glider airfields, and a
section for classic sailplanes. You can admit your own pictures if
you wish - the site is growing rapidly and in my opinion it's one of
the better picture archives on the net!
