There are two reasons for a tinted canopy:
- against snow and clouds a tinted canopied glider can be seen better
- a tinted canopy creates less reflections inside (cloth, shoes, maps..
my friends with DG's prefer the tinted ones)

om...
I need to make a decision on a new glider... I have never flown with a
tinted canopy. Any thoughts on the subject would be welcome.

Thanks
