Nice. . . quite a bit more fancy than what I was flying, but then again,
it
was a just a trainer.


It is a Schreder HP14 40:1 glider ratio all metal sailplane designed in
1964
and cost me less then 1/2 the price of the 2-33 you were flying.

Notice the altimeter.

Note the bycicle grip.

....and the bicycle hand brake lever used to actuate the hydraulic disk brake
master cylinder. The Wright brothers used bicycle technology, so why
shouldn't I use it on my homebuilt Schreder sailplane.
