Kirk -
This is an excellent suggestion, in that many of these aircraft, including the Pegase, have problems accommodating larger than average pilots (say, over 75 in and 225 lbs). It is important to look for adequate cockpit size. Ed Grens Kirk Stant wrote in message om... "Ted Wagner" wrote in message .. . I'd like to know how common these observations are in the most popular birds (Discus 2x, AS-xxx, 304Cx, etc). I should have been more specific than "popular birds": 15-meter, 35:1 or better, ballast tanks, with or without flaps, hold the mayo. Ted, The ASA is setting up an "annual party" at Turf on the weekend of 21-22 Feb, if you stop by you will be able to get a close look at (and talk to owners, sit in, etc.) a bunch of gliders. Current signup includes an LS6, Std Cirrus, Ventus B, ASW-27B, ASW-28, ASW-19B, Pegasus 101A, 304CZ, Grob-102 (ASA's) and Pik-20, with more to follow (LS3, LS4, SZD-55, SZD-48, Discus, Discus 2, Ventus 2 are all local ships that are possible shows). Stop by, if nothing else it's fun to look at all the glass (and cockpit set-ups!) and see what difference a nice trailer makes. Kirk LS6 "66" |
