I've read about
airbrake safety catches that won't allow extension past a certain point (minimal) without deliberately releasing them. Its called a Pigott hook. Look over the DG website at http://www.dg-flugzeugbau.de/ then 'innovations' and 'Pigott-hook'. Invented by 'The most famous glider pilot in the English speaking world' ( note: 'English speaking world' not American speaking world) :-) Ian |
