Not sure which wind project in KS you are referring to but our current generation blades are 47.8m long which makes for a 100m rotor diameter. 120m and 130m rotors on 140m tall towers are already being used in Europe. Our aerodynamisists tell me that these blades have an L/D of around 100:1.

Wow! That pretty much says it all, the hell with honesty, I'm stealing a couple of them blades, assuming I can find both and right hand ones, and building me a new 100 meter 100:1 L/D glider!

Does anyone have a 50 meter trailer for sale? Oh, and really heavy duty one-man rigger?
