Cirrus wing turbulence
As a new owner of a Std Cirrus # 80 I heard today that they have a
very turbulent wing. Any thoughts on this and how to remedy the problem. Thank you M |

Thank you M Start by ignoring whatever it is you have heard. Std Cirrus is a very good glider for the time it was built and is still one of the most desirable in the Club class. Learn to fly it well and enjoy it, then worry about glider performance. Good luckl and have fun UH |

Cirrus wing turbulence
What UH said, plus...
If you must listen to others, start with published documents like the DJ flight test report. You will find, among other things, that the Cirrus has a bug resistant wing, with little performance degradation compared to other ships of the period. Enjoy your ship! aerodyne "10 hrs of flying on a weak day is worth 1000 hrs of sanding wings" |

Well that would explain why Sinha & co. chose the Std. Cirrus.. are you referring to this by any chance? http://www.sinhatech.com/SinhaFCSD-P...03.asp#article From what I've heard the Cirrus is a nice flying glider. |
