Yup, it's winter..
If this is going to work we have to understand the engineering aspects
of cats

If we could just figure out how to get the cats to sand our wings.

This is convenient, because with the global economy like it is, cats
cost less than winglets and are readily available in sizes to fit
nearly all wing planforms and airfoils.

The point seems to be that a cat and some jelly would then prevent
landouts?!!

No, some cats some CARPET and some jelly would prevent landouts,
sheesh.
Obviously with the winglet reference, there is a strategic place to
attach some white carpet on the wingtips to get the cats to rotate
above, thus reducing wingtip vortices. Actually a rather ingeneious
method of dynamically dealing with the problem instead of the standard
passive aerodynamic tip treatments. The real trick is to get the cats
spinning the correct direction, from there it's a snap.

That reminds me of "The Endochronic Properties of Re-Sublimated
Thiotimoline" by Asimov.

But you'll never be able to find a thermal; while you are in sink the
cats will be screaming "Can I has cheeseburger" and you'll think it is
the audio on your vario.

Nyal's reference to cheeseburgers may have escaped most (but not all)
glider pilots. Living in a cat-house, I know that he is referring to
http://icanhascheezburger.com web site. Enjoy.
