Naah, that would just result in another bit of white plastic shaped like all the others. Nothing wrong with a Blanik's looks, except that I'm looking UP at one too often!

Much nicer handling than several fibreglass things I've suffered: performance isn't everything. -- Pete Siddall Renmark Gliding Club _______________________________________________ Aus-soaring mailing list [email protected] To check or change subscription details, visit: http://lists.internode.on.net/mailman/listinfo/aus-soaring
