Jack, You’re clearly suffering from a serious case of delusion! Your equating the DG-303 with the 2006 Carerra GT in their respective fields was apt indeed, though the 'turd' reference was perhaps a little harsh on the competition. I note that you are not a member of SSA. From what material does one usually build a glider in your corner of the universe? Funny you should ask; the rest of the universe has been wondering the same thing about your corner. We had concluded that your glider manufacturers had discovered how to isolate and work the ugly atom. Perhaps you could confirm or dispel these rumours. Many thanks, Tom See: http://www.soaridaho.com/Schreder/ http://www.glidersport.net/ http://www.continuo.com/marske/ http://www.agcsc.org/sgs_1_34_info.html http://www.windward-performance.com/ http://www.ssa.org/JohnsonLWBX/Genesis2%202000-03.pdf The problem is not a lack of appreciation for either aerodynamics or aesthetics, but a matter of production costs and exchange rates. Those challenges will be overcome. We're sure taking care of the exchange rate portion of the problem :-p Shawn P.S. Happy Halloween! Of all the hijacked religious holidays, this one has the best movies. :-) |

Nanotech might do it, unless you actually wanted a glider big enough for your body. Jack |
