investigators will include the pilot's currency status as of the accident date in the final report. The preliminary report said this was his first flight in the SGS 1-35."Not very current" means to me a low amount of recent flight activity.

He said he assumes the NTSB and FAA
My info: 7700hrs in gliders (just under 13000 landings) 60 hours and about 100 landings in last 60 days. I did 20 tows
on the day of the accident at a site 11 miles away. Some info I have relayed is from other sources with knowledge I
trust.
