Default Stemme S12 in Michigan this Saturday, May 20th (KOZW) @ 4 pm

It's definitely big 25 meter glider (by far the largest I have ever flown) but it was still very fun to thermal soar. I guess it's more balanced that the S10, but not sure what that means exactly (hands off in bank). I have no real S10 experience with which to compare.

Also the prop assembly needs refurbishing every 200 hours at some not insignificant expense.
