Default Discus Winglets

Error Correction! It is David Colling that has the tooling to produce
winglets for Schreder designs!!

Peter,

Peter Masak wrote an article for Free Flight based on David's research.
http://www.wgc.mb.ca/sac/freeflight/92_02.pdf
(I would like to thank the SAC for making their publications available
online.)

An html version of this article can be found at:

David Masak has the tooling to produce this version of the Masak winglet

for
Schreder RS-15, HP-16 and HP-18 sailplanes.

Hi Folks,

Two questions

1) Anyone out there know how to check the alignment
of winglets that have been retrofitted to a Discus
(CS if it makes any difference)?
I believe this is fairly critical & if it's wrong then
I'm better off flying with the 'normal' tips

2) Anyone out there have access to a study done in
the early nineties, by David Colling I think, on turbulator
tapes for Discus Winglets?

Thanks

PF
