We just watched the original "Thomas Crown Affair" with Steve McQueen and the remake with Pierce Brosnan this weekend. There were glider scenes in both this weekend. The glider in the old version was odd looking compared to the more modern version, shorter, tapered wings with a wider span and a thicker fuselage.
My parents did a glider/sailplane thing when I was about 5-6 in Pensacola, FL. I'd like to go for a ride some day.
