Default First AS-W20 Gathering, Tehachapi, CA

I believe there are over a dozen AS-W20s on the field today, and met
two owners who didn't bring theirs.
Dan Rihn gave a presentation on the 20 and it's brethren this morning,
to the 20 group and ESA Western Workshop attendees. Paul Gaines will
discuss performance mods tomorrow.
John Neel's latest winglets make the Boeing BizJet's look feeble.
One remark on the radio:
"What do you think about the air vent mod?" (Paul Hansen lent a few
out)
"He's not getting it back!"
The weather is not the best, only 300k stuff and not a cloud to be
found (currently temp 32C, dew point minus 8).

The final count was fourteen AS-W20s. One more than the Libelle
Gathering last year at Air Sailing!
Probably a "Soaring" cover upcoming...
There were two 201 and one 301 Libelle flying, too.
