I wanted to write : Where do you have your skills FROM?

My composites and development skills are mostly school of hard knocks.
Or as Triumph mechanics might call it, "Stanpart University." I've had
a lot of advice from guys like George Applebay, Greg Cole, Harald
Buettner, and many others, but I also just try a lot of stuff and if
it works, do more like that.

To a pretty high degree, my design skills come from reverse-
engineering Dick Schreder's HP-series sailplanes and picking apart
crashed European sailplanes.

Thanks, Bob K.
