Obviously one of the worst ideas ever in gliding history. - now turning into another class for the 'rich boys'. .... but with many nice features (affordable self-launch, godd performance). People in my club are talking about buying 13.5m class gliders. REALLY???? and what are the numbers in 13.5m class? - lower than any World Class event? The idea to have a relatively affordable ship that could be used as a first solo ship in clubs, then to compete with on a level playing field at an international level was a far better idea than another racing class for the rich boys. Trouble is this sport at national and intentional level is dominated by spoilt rich boys who turn up their noses at anything less than 40:1. |
