Though this ship looks like a hoot to fly, I have my
doubts whether this ship could be aerotowed by conventional
towplanes. __Mike

To me this plane is fascinating. I'm amazed by the
stall speed of 20 mph. It
sounds like it would be a great idea for soaring around
very scenic areas,
where you don't want to rush around all of the time.
As well, it would be
comforting to know that if an emergency landing was
needed in an
un-inhabitable area, that the crash could be at very
slow speed. If it's
durable, easy to assemble/disassemble, and reasonably
priced I believe this
would make and excellent club ship.

For soaring, this is it.
New racing class?
Why fly fast when you can fly slower.
What's a rush anyway?
Race slower, cover less ground, easier retrieve.
