You could practice landing a glider in a field, like I did
(pictures).
Or you could sit at your desk and stare at that computer screen, just like you do every day.
I'll let you in on a secret. Flying into fields is more fun--especially when there's an instructor in the back seat to make sure you don't do anything stupid.
It's even more fun when it opens up a new door in your flying--one that means better summer soaring conditions and more interesting soaring sites.
But don't take my word for it. Find your local SSA affiliated soaring club and see for yourself.
