Dave

The "object" is clearly due to the fact that the
shot was taken through a canopy or porthole, and
there is an object inside with the cameraman
that is reflecting sunlight, causing an image on
the reflective surface.

Why: glider is at some distance, so most cameras
would register the shot as infinity, but object
appears radically out of focus; also the
reflected image clearly interferes with the
demarcated edge of the gliders' wings, which means
the image is closer to the camera than the
glider; the time of sighting (200 PM PST) would
indicate that the sun would be highly elevated,
and ideal for giving anomylous reflections of
such diverse things as the dashboard or canopy
frame/surround.

Why has this only surfaced now, after nearly 10 years?

Can anybody verify John Kings' story: anybody from
any of the other aircraft?

Just some comments.
