This is just a WAG............but from reading the Specs on the -27 from Schleichers website, they mention making use of new materials. One notably is the Carbon/Polyethelyne hybrid. I've used "this" material and find it noticably less robust than regular carbon cloth. I believe this material is used in the cockpit area (where pure carbon is not a good choice), but don't have the reference for it. It would be easy enough to ask the dealer about, or someone that has repaired ASW 27 wing. -- Eric Greenwell - Washington State, USA Change "netto" to "net" to email me directly "Transponders in Sailplanes" on the Soaring Safety Foundation website www.soaringsafety.org/prevention/articles.html "A Guide to Self-launching Sailplane Operation" at www.motorglider.org |
