Hello 2NO,

You are correct. I can say also Diana 2 shouldn't be dangerous to fly
without water but dangerous to outland with water or other ballast....

Have experience with "Flying Diana 2" but also with "non flying" serial
number and not only because I am light pilot but also because a lot of
factory faults (production but also in design).

Suggestion for this trouble with "no ballast day". What about standard
weight in cockpit? means Pilot + parachute + ballast which will be the
some for all gliders? May be 90 kg limit and who will be over will be
over... (or without BBQ from start of contest )

BTW I understand AK also. He is Polish and Diana is Polish also. Try to
find more about Polish proud when you type in Google VH-VHZ. You will
find also forums, where is AK trying to change usual rules between
customer and producer...

Have a nice day,

Unhappy pilot experienced with Diana 2, serial No. 3 VH-VHZ

PS. Now I know what it means VH-VHZ...

AK,


I understand your displeasure at the prospect of having a wing loading
disadvantage that you can do nothing about on a particular contest
day. But I do not understand your disagreement with the RC.


Yes a glider like the ASG-29/15M will have an advantage over the Diana
2 on a non-ballast day. But that assumes the conditions will be good.
The Diana 2 will have the advantage when conditions are weak, and the
-29 pilot will not be able to do a darn thing about it. Both pilots
picked their gliders before the contest with the advance knowledge
that some days they'll have an edge, some days they won't. It is
unreasonable to expect rules (and RC) to come up with "fairness" in
these situations.


Quod erat demonstrandum. Go fly.


2NO

Please take your case to court and off public newsgroups. You will do
much better there. You can’t possibly dream to resolve your problems
here and if you want to educate us on Diana 2 you already did so. We
know everything by now.
