Thanks for the info. I'll definitely check that out next time I fly.

Curiosity: my Libelle was one of two that the GSA (UK forces soaring
association) bought in early 1970. The other one went to the 1970 World
Champs at Marfa. Is that your Libelle? What trim setting do you prefer
for a benign spiral?

No, Mine was never in any National or higher competition according to the logbooks. I trim for 50kts, pull full dive brakes and take hands off the stick, feet off the rudders.
