Gary Rubus Gone West
Today our fellow club member Gary Rubus died. Rubus was an incredible man and a great club member that brought much thought and insight into everything from planning his flights to standardizing search and rescue operations. I am having a hard time imagining coming to the flight line without him already there on a good day. This hero's achievements in the USAF, his career with critical space travel components and sailplanes are nothing short of legendary. We will miss him very much.

2018 OLC Results - Moriarty Soaring Wins Gold League!
Congratulations to our pilots for taking back first place in the Gold League after losing last year to Boulder! There were some tough weeks with our weather (wind, rain...smoke) as usual but our fast pilots (helped by those willing to travel) put us in first place right off the bat and held that position for the entire season. Boulder slotted in second mid-season while TSA and the rest of the 17 clubs were swapping positions throughout.

To put our team's speed into perspective- My fastest fli ......continued...
