Using an iPad mini for soaring stuff

That's pretty spiffy looking. I wonder what the trailer costs and if it's a
standard utility trailer or purpose built.

Wonder how Sweetie-Pie would react to an addition to the family...

Off topic, but is the Phoenix you're talking about, Eric?

That's the one!

And presumably you must be abandoning the wonderful ASH 26 for this?
I can see the attraction for aerial safaris, but won't you miss 50:1
performance?

I intend to keep the 26E until I notice I don't have
time/energy/interest to fly two gliders. I don't know how that will turn
out, but initially I'll be joining three other 26E/31Mi pilots that also
have a Phoenix, thus making four of us. I see them as complementary
gliders, not substitutes, and new Phoenix + old ASH 26 E (20 years now!)
still costs less than a new ASH 31Mi.

To clarify, each one of the other three 26E/31Mi owners has his own
Phoenix.
