Abstract

This study has been carried out with the desire to establish the truth of historical facts. We sincerely hope that the information contained in it will enlighten any glider pilot who cares to read it. We would like to apologize to those persons who are allergic to mathematics for the somewhat technical content of the study. We hope, however, that others will appreciate this aspect. The events are covered in chronological order of the known existing written documents.
