Re-curving mylar on a glider
My top surface mylar seems to have lost some of it's curvature, because
it doesn't quite touch the aileron and flaps when they are in positive positions. Does anyone know a way to put the curve back into the mylar without removing it? It's so well adhered and smoothly installed, I'd like to leave it on if at all possible, but I think it may be degrading my climb while thermalling. The mylar is almost 12 years old. -- Eric Greenwell - Washington State, USA Change "netto" to "net" to email me directly "Transponders in Sailplanes" on the Soaring Safety Foundation website www.soaringsafety.org/prevention/articles.html "A Guide to Self-launching Sailplane Operation" at www.motorglider.org
