Gliders in China by
glider rider
Does anyone know if there is a glider community in China?
With the exchange rate of the Euro, I wonder if a proven design
could be produced in China. Even if ships were hand produced
the labor rate would be very low.

Any thoughts? Will the screen hold up in sunlight? It has GPS,

I live in a relatively quiet city, until recently. A flight school
opened up across the bay from me, and all day long, all I can hear
outside are these private plane motor noises.
