I think Johnson came up with an actual L/D of 33, and then whipped out some cardboard and made an improved wheel fairing and taped it on and brought it up to 36/1. Good for a short winged glider but not 42/1
Greg was not happy.

Windward has revamped their website (http://windward-performance.com/) and all sailplanes have disappeared from their website. Anybody in the know as to whether they've ceased any production, or sold off the molds etc?


Greg still has all the molds and could make new parts. 7/18/19
