So... If you're sinking at 1 meter/sec and cruising at 100 km/hr, what's
your glide ratio? If you're sinking at 2 kts and flying at 60 kts, what's your glide ratio? How many km per degree of longitude? How many nm per degree of longitude? I could go on...

Works well, swivels up out of the way for travel, only $30. Go to westmarine.com and search for "swivel jack". Eric Greenwell Eric - Thanks for the comment. The type you describe is the type that I have now and it is fine. But for various reasons having to do with space considerations I want the removable type. It seems that here in the US no such item is used or available (except from glider trailer parts sources). However, in Europe and elsewhere, it is the standard. It took me a while to figure out that a "swivel jack" in US- speak is a "jockey wheel" in Euro-speak. American doing its own thing I guess - and don't even get me started on why we are the only country that doesn't use metric (except for Liberia and Myanmar!). - John "Metric" DeRosa |
