The annual glider invasion is back in Gorham NH this week. The tow plane pretty well runs continuously pulling gliders up to the Mt Washington to catch the various "waves" that a re reliable updrafts that form above the local mountains. Most don't notice the gliders that often but if can be a bit of surprise as a glider comes in low over main street shooting for the Gorham airport.
