Continue to overlook this aspect as you did in the remark about closing the triangle and one goes home and the other may not is a great example in the difference of the flight management as it relates to risk, something that you and Eric and Tom continue to overlook. Now about me being too cheap to pay for a tow, a ground crew and being off shore and not having a motor, let me explain something. I did own three towplanes, now down to one , so I do not have to worry about the tow or the cost of one. If I wanted a motorglider I could go purchase one tomorrow, and who knows, someday I might just get a self launch. Now here comes the good one, I really have experienced a much more dynamic flight out over the ocean than the 5 miles you used as an example, some 25-30 miles offshore and you can read about it if you wish. Oh, I almost forgot, I was in my sailplane with no motor. Have a great day Jon, your friend, Old Bob I have no idea of what you mean by "flight management". What, exactly, are you managing? -- Eric Greenwell - USA - "A Guide to Self-launching Sailplane Operation" https://sites.google.com/site/motorg...ad-the-guide-1 Ok Amos, I will wait for Andy, aka 2G to ask the same question and then I will reply. Please don't - I've decided you are, regrettably, an RAS troll, and I've been wasting my time trying to discuss these issues with you. If you are interested in what I have to say, please contact me privately. -- Eric Greenwell - USA - "A Guide to Self-launching Sailplane Operation" https://sites.google.com/site/motorg...ad-the-guide-1 |
