In a LS-3! Old tech (with a great pilot) rules!

A bunch of years ago, Chip Garner had accrued a strong resume of contest wins. Spring was approaching, and his Discus in partnership was in the green stage of self-refinishing....
He phoned and asked if he could rent my school's LS-3 to use at the Avenal spring contest. Sure. But it hasn't much for instrumentation, just a good TE vario.

No matter, Chip took her over and whomped on the high-dollar, fancy-panel boys for three days. Then a job required him to go home. The others eeked ahead of him for a couple placements above the guy who only flew 3/5ths of the meet.

Go, Daniel.
It is definitely the human computer who makes the decisions.
The trusty mount is only about 80% of the equation.
