The Vince Report

These are documentaries of my flights and flights of others.  Most of the earlier reports were of my competition flights.  I last competed in 2005 so the reports since then are mostly of local flights.  Most of my flights have been XC.  I originally started my reports so that pilots could get a unique view of what is was like to fly in competitions, the good, bad and ugly.  When I stopped competing my friend and frequent flying partner Rich Sauer talked me into continuing my reports and to start adding more pictures and eventually video.  The purpose of these more recent reports is to get pilots interested in flying cross country or XC.  The past few years we have seen a sharp decrease in XC flights around the country and we are hoping to slow or even reverse the trend.  I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I did flying them.

Here is a special bonus feature on how to work together with your buddies and find those thermals faster.     Team Flying
