Pablo Iscold is designer and backer is a Brazilian. Cool project, even though I'm not a long span no turn type of driver. 28m with big aspect ratio and automatic flap control. Neat stuff and could be the next incorporation into gliders.

Hello,

I'm working together with Paulo on the Nixus project. I own the ASH 30 and have known Paulo for a long time, he is an excellent aeronautics engineer and has designed and build two records smashing power planes.

After many tries, I finally persuaded him to design a new wing for the 30. It will be 28 m long, 6 fly by wires ailerons per wing, auto flap and probably up to 65 kg/m2 wing loading.

At the moment, airfoil profiles are being finished, with the help of Prof. Loek Boermans of Delft University.

As a matter of fact, I will probably export my 30 from Brazil to US. It is registered here as experimental-competition.

Suggestions of simple way to enter and fly in the US (Minden) are more than welcome

I meant Paulo. Must of been spell check or typing to fast.

Glad you commented Sergio. I met Paulo last week and the project sounds exciting.

It shouldn't be too hard to get your sailplane certificated here as Experimental, Racing. You'll need to work with a Designated Airworthiness Representative (DAR) to inspect the aircraft and make sure all the paperwork is in order. I'm sure Paulo is familiar with the process from his experience on the Red Bull circuit.

Thanks, Bob K.
