soaring into the future
Lighter weight gliders, coupled with smaller, lower cost winches that
are dead simple to operate (or can perform the launch automatically)
might do more for growing the sport than a somewhat cheaper version of
the gliders we fly now.
Hi Eric,
Maybe instead of the word "cheaper" we could use modern and
affordable!
These new Modern and Affordable sailplanes could be designed from the
start to take advantage of these "alternative" methods of launch!
