How many Chip Garners are there?

Very few. It seems soaring becomes mystical with him, and compared to
my dismal abilities, mythical.

Mike,

Ditto...........too bad a more competent racing pilot wasn't able to
fly the Tetra-15 in our R8 contest. I did not do the ship any justice.
I believe it has a lot of potential.

Brad,

What type of performance does the Tetra-15 have? *Any side by side
glide tests?

Mike

Mike,

So far side-by-side testing shows it has very good performance in
climb and sink rate. The light-ish wing loading during high speed
cruise still needs to be better understood, but I am certainly not
falling out of the sky or falling far behind.

At some point I would like to get a top comp pilot in the seat and see
what it can really do.

I think this sailplane is going to really do well, it sure has met my
goals!
