I should have added.. LS4 9B made the cross country across Death Valley from
Jean NV to Lone Pine CA twice now on the Friday before Memorial Day weekend.

and why would the wings have to be 'profiled ' in 3
years since new?

Ooooh, that's a sore point for Schleicher owners -
thanks for poking at it. My -27 goes in for sanding
this winter. Spar shrinkage was starting to hurt performance.

Sorry Andy... remind me to look for that if I every buy a used ASW.
I can understand the mechanical backup for no batteries on the GPS
loggers..
N52AB (Original 9B) is well past time for sanding and painting on the
wings.
But it serves fine as a club "transition to glass" ship and initial cross
country flying.
