This sort of follows up on the future of soaring thread, but is more
focused on the sailplane design aspect.

Ok.....here is the scenario: the powers that be have decided that once
again the soaring community needs a sailplane that represents Joe
Sailplane Pilot. Joe sailplane pilot wants a sailplane that will get
him where he wants to go, but on a budget. Joe's a smart
guy..............he knows a thing or two about sailplanes; having
spent
considerable time poking and prodding their various bits and pieces.
He
decides he wants a composite ship, now he
want's......................what????

Here is where you fill in the blanks.............if for no other
reason
than to whack away at the keyboard.....or not!

Cheers,
Brad
