Good stuff lads. Lookin' forward to getting home and doing a bit of flying with ye now. :clap:  :clap:
I have an aerobatic type glider at home that I'm goin to put to get when I get back. You have inspired me Brian. Have had it over a year now. It needs a lot of work. It's only a fuse and a pair of foam cores at the moment. I think I'll bump that one to the top of the queue!

Hi Joe,
Look forward to getting you out for a few flights.
The new model is going well,but its a little unsuitable for really light lift.
I have yet get it out in the strong stuff,can't wait for some of that.
Will have to get something sporty for light conditions.

That one is really goin to start working when you get it into good constant lift.
Your alpina would be perfect for lighter conditions or are you thinking of something smaller?

Hi Joe,
Yes something smaller say 1.5 to 2.0M .
There is this DS thing to think about also, but that is/will be about a site that works.
I might do a semisy,,, wing for my old Phase 6,as I have a set of cores.
Also looking at something like a Mini Blade.
We'll see, so much to do so little time.
