What's the distance record in a 2-33?
My UK origins make me very curious about the origin of this name.
.................................................. ............................................. Well, at our home airport here in Hood River, we rarely have much in the way of thermals, mainly just ridge and wave, and we aren't really accomplishing all that much while we're soaring, are we? Aren't we basically just pleasuring ourselves? Hence the name... It's an attempt at humor, which can be risky sometimes... Boggs
