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.

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"
