what do you guys who actually fly the woodstock think of the
structural integrity of the design?
A search of the NTSB aviation accident database turned up two
structural failure incidents. Both were wing failures. One was caused
by using the glider for aerobatics. It is *not* an aerobatic glider.
The cause for the other was not determined. The pilot was flying wave
at 16,500 feet without oxygen.
I found no fuselage structure issues in the database.

thanks for that. it reinforces my thinking that it was an australian
spurious issue. ....not the only one.
