If your flight should be listed here and it's not, it's only because I wasn't aware of it. Send me information about flights that should be on the list and I'll update it periodically. You can e-mail cross-country flight reports to me at steveroti[at]hotmail[dot]com. Be sure to include your name, miles flown, duration, takeoff site, flight date, and make/model of glider.
