Perhaps the limiting factor in a high speed wave flight like Jim's is not glide performance, but Vne, which is nearly the same for the gliders you mention. Cue the DuckHawk... The IGC file did seem to report IAS or TAS, so I couldn't tell if that was a factor. -- Eric Greenwell - Washington State, USA * Change "netto" to "net" to email me directly * "Transponders in Sailplanes" http://tinyurl.com/y739x4 * Sections on Mode S, TPAS, ADS-B, Flarm, more * "A Guide to Self-launching Sailplane Operation" at www.motorglider.org
