From the New Zealand newswire / Breaking News: Delore flies 2190km, breaks record 07 December 2004 Klaus' flight was not a straight line? No it wasn't, and his 3000k+ flight in a Nimbus 4 a year or two ago wasn't either. Another possible difference: Klaus flew a motorglider. The OT doesn't say if the ASH25 in question was a pure glider. If it was they'd be classed as different records. CV
