Default Biggest Glider Ever Launched via Winch?

I'm going to have to retrieve the CAD drawings for the Lark solo rigging
system from an old hard drive and clean them up so others can read the
drawings.

BTW, Bill, did you ever talk with the new owner of my Lark about your
super fantastic rigging aids? If not, please send me your new email
address. The Lark is no "Mammut" but as you know the wings are a tad
heavy. I trailered it out of no less than 5 fields last year and
rigged it countless other times flying at Region 7 and XC training.
He's planning to fly it at Region 7 next year and would appreciate your
system. (so would I as I may be the back seater again).

The largest GLIDER was the Messerschmitt 321 gigant but I doubt they
winched it. http://www.waffenhq.de/flugzeuge/me321.html


Hi Daniel,
is not correct. The largest glider in the II.WW was the Mamut, built by
Junkers.

Thorsten
