That was the first time I saw a sailplane launched off a winch, that was awesome!
Hey TJ, thanks for letting me fly something with wings that didn't spin.  I haven't flown a sailplane in about 25 years. The last one I had was a Balsa USA standard class called a Nomad (I think). I just might have to consider getting another one before the next sailplane event. -------------------- Larry R. Rogers

Anytime Larry.
The Radian is beloved by neophytes and seasoned sailplanes enthusiasts alike. In fact a Radian was flown to Third Place in an event at the NATS last month in Muncie. I didn't count them, but I saw at least five at our fly in on Saturday. -------------------- |
